Wabco 8941011302 Cable

Description

This cable is a critical component within the ABS controller system, specifically designed for use with air dryers. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 8941011302, this cable facilitates essential communication and control within the braking system. It features a socket M 24 x 1 3-pin connection on one end and an open 2-strand 2 x 1.0 mm² connection on the other. With dimensions of 71 x 316 x 396 mm, this cable is engineered to OE specification, ensuring reliable performance and durability within the vehicle’s braking infrastructure.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable is pretty straightforward – it’s how the ABS controller communicates with the wheel speed sensors on your car. Each wheel has a sensor, and this cable carries the signals from those sensors to the ABS module. It's a data link, basically. Sometimes it’s just one cable, other times it’s a whole harness with several wires bundled together. Think of your anti – lock braking system as needing to “know” how fast each wheel is spinning. The wheel speed sensors do that, and this cable is the messenger getting that info back to the brain – the ABS controller. That controller then decides if a wheel is about to lock up during braking and, if so, pulses the brakes to keep you steered and stopping safely. It’s a crucial part of that whole system working as it should.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this cable gets damaged – a wire breaks, it gets frayed, or the connector corrodes – the ABS controller won’t get accurate information. You’ll likely see an ABS warning light on your dashboard. Sometimes it will only trigger occasionally, sometimes it's always on. It could even cause the ABS system to stop functioning altogether. That means when you really need it – in a sudden stop or on slippery roads – it might not be there. It acts like a shield, preventing wheel lockup, so if that signal isn’t getting through reliably, you’re losing a key safety feature. You’ll notice if it fails – the ABS light will come on, and you might feel a difference in how the brakes perform, especially in wet or icy conditions.
