Wabco 4497120800 Connector Cable 8.0M

Description

This 8.0 meter connector cable is designed for use in air brake systems, specifically within EBS (Electronic Braking System) applications. It's an essential component connecting sensors within the ABS system. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 4497120800, this cable features a 2-pin sensor plug on one end and a 2-pin sensor socket on the other. Its dimensions are 32 x 344 x 411 mm. This cable is manufactured to OE specification, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility within the braking system.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable basically carries the electrical signals between the Electronic Control Unit – that’s the “brain” of your ABS system – and the wheel speed sensors on your vehicle. It’s a multi – wire cable, so it handles a bunch of different signals, not just one. It transmits information about how fast each wheel is spinning. Think of it as a vital nerve connecting the sensors to the computer. The wheel speed sensors tell the ECU if a wheel is slowing down or locking up, and this cable delivers that message. The ECU then uses that information to modulate the braking pressure and keep the vehicle stable. It’s a core component of your Electronic Braking System, or EBS.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without a working connector cable, your EBS can’t do its job. You’ll notice if this cable fails because your ABS warning light will likely illuminate on your dash. More seriously, your anti – lock brakes might not engage when you need them, significantly increasing your stopping distance, especially in slick conditions. A failing cable can also cause intermittent issues, like the ABS activating when it shouldn't. It’s something you definitely want to keep in good shape. We carry these regularly at Fixparts Online, and often stocking the correct length is key to a proper repair. It’s not a part you want to gamble with, honestly.
