Wabco 4491350600 ABS Socket Cable

Description

The Wabco 4491350600 ABS Socket Cable is a vital component within trailer brake controls, specifically designed for air brake systems. This cable connects the ABS socket to the coupling socket, enabling communication for anti-lock braking functionality. Measuring 327 x 355 x 109 mm, this cable meets OE specifications, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility. Its robust construction and precise engineering contribute to enhanced braking safety and system dependability.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable basically delivers the electrical signal from your tractor’s ABS system to the ABS module on your trailer. It carries information about wheel speed and allows the systems to talk to each other, coordinating the brakes. It's a pretty straightforward connector, but vital for everything working right. Think of it as a messenger. Your tractor’s ABS knows what’s happening with its wheels, and this cable tells the trailer’s ABS what’s going on so they can both work together to prevent lockup during braking. It’s part of the larger anti – lock braking system, connecting the ‘brain’ on the truck to the ‘brain’ on the trailer. It’s typically found near the trailer connection, where the electrical hookups are.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without this cable working correctly, the trailer's ABS won’t function properly—or at all. You’ll notice if it's bad because your ABS warning light on the tractor will likely stay on, and your trailer brakes might not respond as they should during hard braking. That’s a safety issue, plain and simple. It acts like a shield against skids, especially in slippery conditions, and if that connection is broken, you're losing a key part of that protection. You can find these pretty easily – a place like Fixparts Online often has them in stock if you're looking to replace one. Product information is provided for reference only.
