Abstract

A system (20) including a magnet (138) configured to move in response to a movement of a wear pin indicator (24) of a brake assembly of a vehicle. A sensor (130) is configured to generate position data corresponding to the magnet (138). The position data is indicative of a position and/or movement of the wear pin indicator (24). The system (20) includes a thermoelectric generator (94) configured to generate an electrical signal based on an operation of the brake assembly. The thermoelectric generator (94) is configured to deliver at least a portion of the electrical signal to the sensor (130). The system (20) includes a mounting bracket (98) configured to mechanically couple a sensor housing to an actuator housing of the brake assembly. The mounting bracket (98) is configured to provide heat to the thermoelectric generator (94) when the mounting bracket (98) mechanically couples the sensor housing and the actuator housing.
