Description
Overview
This ATE ABS Pump is specifically designed for use in Citroën C2, C3, and Peugeot 207 vehicles. It serves as a crucial component of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), ensuring effective braking control by preventing wheel lock-up during sudden stops or on slippery surfaces. This unit includes the control module and a piece of wiring to facilitate easy installation.
Mechanics and DIY enthusiasts frequently search for this part using the product numbers due to its critical role in maintaining vehicle safety and braking efficiency. The pump works by modulating brake pressure in real-time, improving grip and reducing stopping distances.
Replacement and Usage Advice
The ABS pump is typically located in the engine bay, and replacement requires disconnecting the old unit, including its wiring harness, and installing the new one. It is recommended to check the braking system for fault codes and bleed the brakes after installation to ensure proper functionality. Over time, ABS pumps may fail due to moisture ingress, electrical faults, or mechanical wear, leading to warning lights on the dashboard and compromised braking performance.
