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