The Wabco 4497140100 Connector Socket with Cable is a crucial component within air brake systems, specifically EBS cables. It facilitates the electrical connection for sensors within the braking network, ensuring reliable communication for optimal brake performance. This connector features a 2-pin sensor socket on one end and an open 2-strand cable with 2 x 0.75 mm² conductors on the other. Its dimensions are 25 x 217 x 217 mm. This OE specification connector is designed for robust performance and durability, contributing to a safer and more efficient braking system. This little piece basically makes the electrical connection between the trailer’s ABS system – that’s the Electronic Braking System – and the tractor unit, the front of your truck. It carries the signals that tell the trailer brakes when and how hard to apply, coordinating everything with the tractor’s brakes. It handles data, power, and ground – everything the system needs to talk to itself. Think of it as a key link in a chain. It’s part of the EBS cabling, physically connecting the trailer’s smart braking system to the truck. Without a solid connection here, that whole system can’t function correctly. It’s generally found near the trailer connector, where the air and electrical lines hook up. This isn’t something you want to mess around with. If this connector is corroded, damaged, or loose, you’ll notice if your trailer’s ABS system isn’t working right – warning lights on your dash are a good sign. More importantly, a faulty connection can lead to inconsistent braking, or even complete brake failure on the trailer, which is obviously a safety issue. It acts like a shield, protecting the entire system from signal loss or interruption. You can find these fairly easily—Fixparts Online carries a good selection, and getting a replacement is a lot cheaper, and definitely safer, than dealing with brake problems down the road. Long-lasting quality: Connector Socket with Cable (MPN 4497140100) includes a 12-month warranty!
