MAN N2255200061 Sensor

Description

This is an ABS sensor manufactured by MAN, part number N2255200061. It is a critical component within a vehicle's Anti-lock Braking System, responsible for monitoring wheel speed and providing data to the ABS control module. This sensor plays a vital role in maintaining vehicle stability and control during braking events. Its precise measurements enable the ABS system to effectively prevent wheel lockup, reducing stopping distances and enhancing driver safety. The sensor dimensions are 12 x 200 x 360 mm.

Key Features & Benefits

This little guy basically monitors how fast each wheel is spinning. It sends that information back to the vehicle’s computer, the ABS module. It's an electromagnetic sensor, so it doesn't have any moving parts. It just creates a signal based on the wheel’s rotation. Each wheel usually has its own sensor. Think of it as a crucial part of your anti – lock braking system. When you hit the brakes, the ABS module uses the data from these sensors to determine if any wheel is starting to lock up – that is, stop turning while the car is still moving. If it detects that, it quickly pulses the brakes on that wheel, letting it regain traction. That's what prevents skidding and helps you maintain steering control during hard braking. It’s working alongside your brake pads, rotors, and lines to keep you safe.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if this sensor fails, your ABS light will come on. The ABS system might not function correctly, or not at all. That means when you brake hard, you lose the benefits of anti – lock braking—you could easily skid, especially on wet or slippery roads. You’ll notice if one isn't working right because the car might pull to one side when braking. You can find these pretty readily at places like Fixparts Online if you decide to tackle the repair yourself. Replacing a faulty sensor restores that important safety feature. It’s a relatively inexpensive part for the peace of mind it provides.
