Yes it uses a magnet attached to the brake somehow. I don't actually have one but if you go here you get some good pics of it on a 400EX.

did they always look like this?
B/c mine is just a wire with a threaded bolt type thing at the end with 2 nuts on it and not the black sensor like in the pic and not magnet that is detached

All applications vary. You may have a bicycle application.

On mine you replaced one the rotor bolts with the bolt they give you that has a magnetic head. Then on the caliper bracket or somewhere (not for sure) you drill a hole and mount the other magnetic piece with the wire on it. The two should be in line when they roll around.

thats what i have do i take the bolt off the end and put it on the brake rotor? and attach the other end to something that will be even with the bolt that i put ont he rotor?
i wish i had the instructions

Thats not the right cable for the 400EX application. Call Trail Tech and get the right one, the one in the first photo you posted.
A new sensor set up is $23.95 on there website.
