Description
Product Overview
This ABS ESP control module pump unit by ATE is designed specifically for the Citroën C5 I model. It plays a crucial role in managing the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP), ensuring optimal braking performance and enhanced driving safety.
Function and Importance
The unit controls hydraulic pressure within the braking system to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking, while the ESP feature assists in maintaining vehicle stability during complex maneuvers. Malfunction of this module can lead to warning lights on the dashboard and reduced effectiveness of ABS and ESP functions, which is why timely replacement is essential.
Compatible Models and Replacement
This part is compatible with Citroën C5 I models, typically manufactured in the early 2000s. It is often identified by product codes such as 9648606980, 10.0206-0072.4, and 10.0960-1128.3, commonly searched by both professional mechanics and DIY enthusiasts.
Replacing the ABS ESP control module involves removing the old unit from the vehicle’s brake system, usually located in the engine bay, followed by proper installation and recalibration using diagnostic tools to ensure seamless integration with the vehicle’s electronics.
Durability and Common Issues
The ABS ESP control unit can degrade over time due to exposure to heat, moisture, or electrical faults. Common symptoms indicating failure include ABS or ESP warning lights, poor braking response, or erratic stability control. Regular inspections during brake service intervals can help detect early warning signs.
