Wabco 4497120700 Connector Cable 7.0M

Description

This 7.0-meter Wabco connector cable is designed for use within air brake systems, specifically as an EBS cable. It connects sensors within ABS systems, utilizing a 2-pin sensor plug on one end and a 2-pin sensor socket on the other. This cable adheres to OE specifications, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility. Its dimensions are 38 x 329 x 401 mm. This design provides a durable and effective connection for critical braking system components.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable basically transmits the electrical signals between your EBS (Electronic Braking System) control unit and the ABS modulator. It carries data—things like wheel speed information, brake force requests, and system status—back and forth. Think of it like the nervous system for your brakes – it’s how everything communicates. It’s a multi – pin connector, meaning it handles a lot of different signals all at once. This cable is a critical part of your trailer’s braking. It connects the tractor protection system – the bit in your truck cab – to the ABS unit on the trailer. This allows the truck to communicate with the trailer brakes and ensure everything works together safely. It’s usually run along the landing gear and down the kingpin area.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this cable fails, your EBS system won’t be able to properly control your trailer brakes. You’ll notice if it’s going bad because you might get EBS warning lights on your dash. More seriously, it could lead to reduced braking performance or even a complete loss of trailer brake control. It acts like a shield protecting the entire system – if it’s compromised, everything suffers. These cables can get damaged from road debris, wear and tear, or just age. You can find a replacement like this one at places like Fixparts Online, but getting a good quality cable is key for safety.
