Description

This Cable with Socket is a critical component within the ABS controller system of a motor vehicle. It's designed for connection to the ABS Modulator, ensuring reliable communication and functionality of the braking system. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 4495131000, this cable features a Bayonet socket ISO 15170-B1-3.1-Sn/K1 on one end and an Open 3-Strand connection with 3 x 1.0 mm² push-on contacts on the other.

This cable is manufactured to OE specification, assuring a precise fit and dependable performance, and contributing to the overall safety and efficiency of the vehicle's braking system.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable's job is pretty straightforward – it connects the ABS controller, which is the brain of your anti – lock braking system, to one of the wheel speed sensors. Each wheel has a sensor, and this cable is how that sensor reports back to the controller how fast the wheel is spinning. It’s a simple electrical connection, sending a signal. Think of your ABS system as a safety net. It stops your wheels from locking up when you brake hard, which lets you keep steering and avoid a skid. This cable is a crucial part of that system. Without a good connection here, the controller doesn’t know what the wheel is doing. It’s a vital communication line.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this cable fails – it can corrode, the wire can break inside, or the connector can get damaged – the ABS system won’t work right. Usually, you'll get an ABS warning light on your dashboard. More importantly, your anti – lock brakes might not engage when you need them. You’ll notice if it’s bad – maybe the light comes on, or perhaps the ABS doesn’t kick in during a hard braking situation. It's a safety item, so it’s best to get it sorted quickly. You can often find these cables at places like Fixparts Online, and they’re not too difficult to replace if you’re comfortable with a little DIY.
