Problem: Brake pad thickness warning message is displayed even if the pads are above specifications.
Cause: The mathematical calculation made by the Condition Based Services Module (CBS) do not agree with the actual brake wear. The CBS uses inputs like vehicle speed, pedal pressure and rotor temperature to determine if the pads require replacement.
Correction: Re-flash the CBS module with new software. This tech tip from The Timken Company is designed to help you install and maintain Timken bearings, seals and components to maximize the life and performance of those bearings and the systems in which they operate.
