A brake wear indicator is connected to a backing plate and extends around the periphery thereof to engage a disc, when a friction element is worn to a predetermined dimension. The brake wear indicator comprises a generally U-shaped spring clip that terminates in a pair of prongs that cooperate with the disc to generate an audible warning. A bend in the spring clip permits the backing plate to abut a piston cup without interference by the spring clip for urging the backing plate and friction element toward the disc. Either prong on the spring clip is engageable with the disc to generate an audible warning to a motor vehicle operator.
