Hello altogether!

At the right front wheel of my M3W next to the brake line I noticed an electric cable :

What is it doing? Hidden ABS sensor? Brake pad wear sensor?

Also known as one of the first points of failure. Between the clamps holding the cable down and the endless wind and buffeting it receives, I've had that cable lose its connection to the speed sensor. When that happens, you will lose the speedo as well as the timer determining the turn signal shut off. If the wheel is spinning it will shut off after 7 seconds. If sensor wire is cut it will never shut off.


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

7 seconds is too short and I always have to reactivate them so I'd rather they just stay on. I do, however want the speedometer!
