Description
Product Overview
This ABS ESP ATE pump with wiring harness is designed for Citroën C5 II vehicles, ensuring reliable operation of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The unit integrates the pump and control module, crucial for maintaining proper brake pressure and vehicle stability during various driving conditions.
Usage and Installation
The pump assembly is fitted with a segment of wiring harness for seamless integration with vehicle electronics. Replacement involves disconnecting the old module from the ABS hydraulic system and vehicle wiring, followed by careful installation of the new unit to prevent air ingress and ensure system integrity. It is recommended that this component be serviced by professional mechanics or experienced DIY enthusiasts familiar with ABS system diagnostics and bleeding procedures.
Common Failure Causes and Function
Typical reasons for pump failure include wear of the electric motor, contamination of hydraulic fluid, and electrical connector issues. The pump’s function is to modulate brake fluid pressure during anti-lock braking and stability control interventions, preventing wheel lock-up and skidding. Malfunction can lead to warning lights on the dashboard and reduced braking effectiveness.
