Description
Product Overview
This ABS ESP Control Module by ATE is specifically designed for the Citroën C5 I, providing reliable management of both the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The unit comes with a wiring harness to facilitate straightforward installation, making it a preferred choice for professional auto mechanics and DIY enthusiasts working on PSA Citroën and Peugeot vehicles.
Function and Importance
The ABS ESP control module monitors wheel speed sensors and regulates brake pressure via an integrated pump and valve system to prevent wheel lockup during braking. Additionally, the ESP function ensures vehicle stability by automatically adjusting brake pressure and engine power during skids or loss of traction. Over time, factors such as moisture, corrosion, or electrical failures can affect the module’s performance, leading to warning lights or reduced braking efficiency.
Replacement and Compatibility
This unit fits the Citroën C5 I models equipped with the corresponding part numbers. Replacing the module typically involves disconnecting the battery, removing the faulty module, and reconnecting the new one using the supplied wiring harness. Proper recalibration or coding may be required after installation to ensure the ABS and ESP system work correctly. Regular inspection and maintenance of brake components can help extend the module’s lifespan.
