Description
This Bosch ABS control module (part number 0273004440, also referenced as 454153 or 9636084480) is specifically designed for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, including the Citroën Xsara and Peugeot 306 models. It plays a crucial role in the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) by controlling the hydraulic pump and brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking, thus enhancing vehicle stability and safety.
The ABS pump unit and electronic control module work together to monitor wheel speed sensors, modulating brake pressure to maintain optimal traction and control in various road conditions. Over time, ABS modules may fail due to electrical faults, water ingress, or wear on internal components, leading to warning lights or reduced brake system efficiency.
Replacing the ABS control module ensures the restoration of full ABS functionality, improving braking safety and confidence. Installation typically involves disconnecting the battery, safely removing the faulty module from the vehicle’s wheel well or engine bay, and reconnecting all hydraulic and electrical connections securely. It is recommended that replacement is carried out by experienced mechanics or competent DIY enthusiasts with appropriate automotive knowledge and diagnostic equipment.
