Description
Product Overview
This ABS ESP control module manufactured by ATE is designed specifically for the Citroën C5 I, ensuring optimal performance of both the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). It functions as a critical electronic component responsible for regulating brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up during aggressive braking and maintaining vehicle stability through traction control. The module includes the ABS pump and electronic control unit integrated into one compact assembly.
Usage and Application
The module is compatible primarily with early-generation Citroën C5 models (C5 I) and may also fit various PSA Peugeot and Citroën vehicles bearing the same part numbers. It is commonly sought under product codes 9648606980, 10.0206-0072.4, and 10.0960-1128.3, as well as cross-references including 454192, 454193, 454297, and 454298. This unit directly interfaces with vehicle sensors and wheel speed data to adjust brake pressure dynamically.
The replacement of the ABS ESP control module involves removing the original unit from the vehicle’s braking system, generally located near the brake master cylinder or within the engine bay fuse box area, depending on the vehicle layout. Proper diagnostic tools may be required to reset and calibrate the module after installation to ensure full system integration.
Common Failure Causes and Maintenance
Over time, the control module can fail due to moisture ingress, corrosion, electrical faults, or wear of the internal pump components. Early symptoms of malfunction include warning lights on the dashboard, irregular brake feel, or loss of ESP functionality. Regular inspection during brake system servicing can help identify issues before complete failure.
