Wabco 4494150800 DIN Cable with Socket

Description

This cable with DIN 72585 socket is a crucial component within the ABS controller system, connecting the electrical signals for optimal braking performance. It's designed for use in heavy-duty vehicles and ensures reliable communication between the ABS control module and wheel speed sensors. This Wabco cable, with MPN 4494150800, features a bayonet socket on one end (DIN 72585- B1-2.1-Sn/K1 4-pin) and open 2-strand push-on contacts (2 x 1.5 mm²) on the other. Its dimensions are 35 x 370 x 371 mm. This cable is manufactured to OE specification, ensuring compatibility and durability.

Key Features & Benefits

This cable basically handles the electrical connection for your ABS controller. It’s how the module talks to the wheel speed sensors and the hydraulic unit. It carries the signals – data about how fast each wheel is spinning – back and forth. It's a fairly simple part, really, just a connection point, but a vital one. Think of your ABS system as having a ‘brain’ – that’s the ABS controller. The wheel speed sensors are its ‘eyes,’ telling it how fast each wheel is moving. This DIN cable is like the optic nerve connecting those eyes to the brain. Without that connection, the brain doesn’t get the information it needs to properly control the brakes during hard stops or slippery conditions. It’s part of the circuit that enables the ABS to prevent wheel lockup.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if this cable fails, your ABS light will almost certainly come on. The system might still work for a bit, but it won't be reliable. You’ll notice if your ABS is malfunctioning usually when you brake hard – maybe you'll feel pulsing, or the car may just want to slide. More importantly, a failing ABS system reduces your stopping power and increases your risk of an accident. It’s a relatively inexpensive part to replace, and it's far better to address it now than to gamble with your safety. You can find these pretty easily – sites like Fixparts Online usually have them in stock. Replacing it restores that critical communication within the ABS system and gets you back to safe, reliable braking.
