Description

The Wabco 4461300300 Ecu Epb Central Modul 4S/4M is an EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) control module, functioning as a critical component within a vehicle's braking system. This module is used in commercial vehicles to electronically control the parking brake, enhancing safety and driver convenience. It provides precise control of the braking system, leading to improved stopping power and stability. The module measures 180 x 215 x 50 mm and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +75°C at 24V. Its IP 30 protection class ensures durability and reliability in demanding environments.

Key Features & Benefits

This thing basically manages your electronic parking brake. It controls the motors at each rear wheel that actually apply and release the brake when you use the EPB switch. It also talks to other systems in the car – like the ABS and stability control – to make sure everything works together smoothly. It handles things like automatically releasing the brake when you start driving, or applying it if the system detects a problem. It also usually includes a feature to help with hill – hold assist, preventing rollback on inclines. Think of it as the brain behind your electric parking brake. It doesn’t do the braking itself, but it tells the actuators at the wheels when and how much to brake. It's part of a bigger system, working hand – in – hand with the wheel speed sensors, the brake calipers, and your car’s computer. It's a pretty central piece of the puzzle for modern braking systems.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, without it, your electric parking brake won’t work at all. You’ll notice if this goes bad pretty quickly. You might get a warning light on your dash, or the parking brake might fail to engage or disengage. It also affects safety. A faulty module could mean the parking brake stays on unexpectedly, or doesn’t apply when you need it, particularly on a hill. It's a part you definitely don't want to ignore. We’ve got a good selection of these at Fixparts Online if you're looking to replace yours, and it’s usually a pretty straightforward install for a mechanic. It acts like a shield for the whole braking system, so keeping it in good shape is important.
