Wabco 4495131600 Cable with Socket

Description

This Cable with Socket, manufactured by Wabco (MPN: 4495131600), is a critical component within a vehicle's ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). It's designed for use with ABS Modulators and connects the ABS controller to the braking system. The cable features a Bayonet socket (ISO 15170-B1-3.1-Sn/K1) on one end and an Open 3-Strand connection with push-on contacts (3 x 1.0 mm²) on the other. This cable's OE specification ensures reliable signal transmission and maintains the integrity of the ABS functionality, contributing to enhanced vehicle safety and control. It measures 38 x 324 x 373 mm.

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.
