The Wabco 4497230300 Cable with Socket is a critical component within air brake systems, specifically designed for EBS (Electronic Braking System) applications on trailers. This cable facilitates the connection between sensors and the EBS system, ensuring reliable communication for optimal braking performance. It features a 2-pin sensor plug on one end and a Code A 4-pin connector on the other. This cable adheres to OE specifications, guaranteeing compatibility and consistent performance. Its dimensions are 38 x 202 x 231 mm and it has a length of 3000 mm, providing ample reach for various trailer configurations. This cable’s job is pretty straightforward – it transmits the signal from the ABS wheel speed sensor at the wheel up to your vehicle's computer. The sensor itself actually detects how fast each wheel is spinning, but this cable is the wire that carries that information. The socket on the end is where it connects to the sensor, making sure you get a solid electrical connection. It’s a pretty simple piece, but critical. Basically, it’s a key part of your Anti – lock Braking System, or ABS. The computer needs to know how fast each wheel is turning individually. If one wheel starts to lock up during braking – meaning it’s slowing down much faster than the others – the computer uses that info, sent through this cable, to momentarily release pressure on that brake. That keeps the wheel rolling and lets you maintain steering control. It's all happening very quickly, obviously. If this cable gets damaged – frayed, broken connector, corroded inside – the computer won't get the correct wheel speed information. That means your ABS light will likely come on, and the ABS system might not work right, or even at all. Without working ABS, you lose that extra level of control during hard braking, particularly on slippery surfaces. It acts like a shield against losing control. You’ll notice if this cable fails, mostly because that ABS light will be illuminated on your dash. If you’re looking to replace it, places like Fixparts Online usually have a good selection. It's one of those things you don't think about until it’s a problem, but fixing it quickly is worth it for safety’s sake. Backed by experts: Cable with Socket (MPN 4497230300) includes a 12-month warranty!
