Wabco 1811100061 Midskirt Jump Prim

Description

The Midskirt 2700 Jump Prim R is a primed base layer midskirt designed for trailer brake controls within air brake systems. It serves as the initial panel transition for cut panels, ensuring a smooth and reliable connection. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 1811100061, this component provides a durable and effective solution for maintaining optimal braking performance. Its 2.7-meter total length conforms to OE specifications, delivering a precise fit and enhancing the longevity of the overall air brake system.

Key Features & Benefits

This little guy is basically an electrical component. It's a resistor, and its job is to provide a specific resistance in the trailer’s ABS system circuit. It reads the signal coming from the wheel speed sensors and sends it up to the ABS control module. It's designed to work with ABS systems that use a mid – skirt wiring configuration – that’s where it gets the ‘midskirt’ part of the name. It’s important to note there are different resistance values for different systems, so getting the right one is crucial. Think of it as a translator for the wheel speed sensors. Each wheel has a sensor that tells the ABS system how fast it's turning. The jump prim takes that signal and makes sure it's clean and correct before sending it to the ABS module. Without it, or if it’s sending the wrong information, the ABS system won’t know if a wheel is locking up and can’t do its job properly. It’s part of the whole communication network that keeps your trailer’s brakes working safely.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

This is a safety item, plain and simple. If this prim fails, your trailer's ABS system might not function correctly. You’ll notice if it's gone bad typically because your ABS light will illuminate on the dash. The ABS system helps prevent wheel lockup during braking, which keeps you in control, especially in slippery conditions. A faulty prim messes with that. You can find these fairly easily – sites like Fixparts Online usually carry them. Getting a replacement isn't usually too difficult, but make sure you get the correct resistance value for your trailer's system. It's a small part, but it plays a big role in keeping things safe on the road.
