Wabco 4497550250 Cable with Plug

Description

This cable with plug is an integral component of the ABS controller system, facilitating communication between sensors. It's used within the braking system to ensure optimal functionality of the ABS controls. This cable is manufactured by Wabco with MPN 4497550250 and adheres to OE specifications, guaranteeing a precise fit and reliable performance. It measures 40 x 210 x 223 mm and features a 2-pin sensor plug on one end and a 2-pin sensor socket on the other. This design enhances signal integrity and contributes to the overall efficiency of the braking system.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable is really simple, honestly. It’s an electrical connection – it sends signals to and from the ABS controller. Those signals are things like wheel speed data – basically telling the ABS system how fast each wheel is turning. It also carries instructions from the controller to the hydraulic modulator, telling it when to activate the ABS to prevent wheel lockup. It's just a wire with a connector, but it carries vital info. Think of the ABS controller as the brain of your anti – lock braking system. This cable is one of the main nerves connecting that brain to the rest of the body – the wheels and the modulator. Without a good connection here, the ABS system can’t "know" what the wheels are doing and can’t react properly. It's a critical part of getting the information the system needs to function.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

It’s important because if this cable is damaged or corroded, your ABS light will likely come on. But more seriously, the ABS system might not work when you need it most—during hard braking or on slick roads. It acts like a shield against skidding. You’ll notice if this cable fails because the ABS light will illuminate, and you might experience reduced braking performance. You can often find these cables pretty easily; Fixparts Online carries a good selection, if you’re looking for a reliable source. It’s a relatively inexpensive part to replace, but a very important one for safety.
