Description

This Wabco cable with socket is a critical component within the ABS controller of a motor vehicle’s braking system, specifically designed for ECAS/ASR applications. It features a bayonet socket connection on one end, adhering to ISO 15170-B1-2.1-Sn/K1 standards, and an open 2-strand connection with 2 x 1.5 mm² conductors on the other. This cable is engineered to OE specification, ensuring reliable performance and seamless integration within the vehicle’s existing systems. Its dimensions are 38 x 360 x 389 mm, providing a robust and space-efficient solution for brake control applications.

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.
