Description
Product Overview
This ABS ESP ATE control module is designed specifically for Citroën C5 I vehicles, serving as a crucial part of the vehicle’s braking safety system. It integrates the control unit, pump, and electronic components that manage the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP), ensuring optimal vehicle stability and safety during braking and dynamic driving conditions.
The module is often sought under part numbers 9648606980, 10.0206-0072.4, and 10.0960-1128.3, as well as additional reference numbers 454192, 454193, 454297, and 454298. It is compatible with various PSA group vehicles, mainly focusing on the Citroën C5 I model.
Function and Importance
The ABS ESP control module monitors wheel speeds and instantly controls brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking. It also works with the ESP system to maintain vehicle stability on slippery or challenging road surfaces. Failure of this module can lead to compromised braking performance and loss of vehicle control, making timely replacement essential for safety.
Installation and Maintenance
Replacing the control module requires basic auto electrical skills, opening the ABS hydraulic unit to unplug the old module and connect the new one. After installation, programming or system calibration might be necessary using a compatible diagnostic tool to ensure full system functionality. Typically, failures arise from electronic malfunctions or wear due to moisture ingress or mechanical vibration over time.
