Key Features & Benefits

This little thing basically translates the signal coming from your wheel speed sensor – the KEA type – into something your vehicle’s ABS system – which uses HDSCS – can actually understand. It’s a signal converter, a bridge between two different communication languages, if you will. It takes the pulse from the sensor, changes it to the right format, and sends it along. It sits inline, usually near one of your wheel speed sensors, and connects to the wiring. Think of it as an interpreter making sure the information about how fast each wheel is spinning gets through correctly. Without it, the ABS system can't "hear" what the sensor is telling it, and that causes problems. It's part of the system that lets your car know when a wheel is locking up during braking or losing traction.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, your Anti – lock Braking System relies on accurate wheel speed data. If this adapter fails, or if you’ve got a sensor that isn’t compatible with your car’s system, the ABS light will likely come on. Even more importantly, the ABS itself might not work correctly when you actually need it. It's a safety thing, plain and simple. You’ll notice if this is going bad if you get an ABS warning light on your dashboard. A lot of people find these adapters at Fixparts Online when they're troubleshooting those kinds of issues. It's a relatively small part, but it plays a big role in keeping you safe.
