Wabco 4410350620 KEA to MKR Adapter

Description

The Wabco 4410350620 Adapter connects KEA plugs to MKR connectors, serving as an essential component within the drivetrain electronics of ABS systems. This adapter facilitates reliable signal transmission, ensuring optimal performance of the braking system. Its OE specification guarantees a precise fit and function, contributing to enhanced system efficiency and durability. The adapter measures 20 x 18 x 295 mm.

Key Features & Benefits

This little adapter basically translates the signal from an older – style ABS wheel speed sensor – what KEA designates – into a signal your newer vehicle’s computer – which uses the MKR standard – can understand. It’s a signal converter, plain and simple. It doesn’t fix a bad sensor, it just allows a compatible sensor to work with a system designed for something else. It takes the electrical “language” of one and turns it into the language the other speaks. Think of your ABS sensors as the eyes of your anti – lock braking system. They tell the computer how fast each wheel is spinning. If one wheel starts to lock up during braking, the system uses that information to pulse the brakes and keep you in control. This adapter lets you use a different type of sensor without needing to completely overhaul your ABS system. You’ll often see these used when someone is swapping parts, maybe upgrading or doing a custom build, or adapting components from different model years. It bridges the gap when the electrical connections aren't quite the same.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If you try to connect a KEA sensor directly to a system expecting an MKR signal, it just won't work, or worse, it could send a faulty signal and mess with your ABS. It acts like a shield, protecting the system from incorrect data. You’ll notice if this is the problem because your ABS light will likely be on, and potentially your ABS won’t function correctly. That’s a safety issue you definitely want to address. You can find these adapters readily available, we often stock them at Fixparts Online, and they’re relatively inexpensive compared to replacing whole ABS modules or doing complicated wiring. It’s a simple way to get everything communicating properly.
