Description
Product Overview
This Bosch ABS ESP control module is designed specifically for Citroën C4 and Peugeot 307 vehicles, providing precise control over the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Essential for maintaining vehicle safety, this module helps prevent wheel lock-up during emergency braking and supports stability by adjusting brake pressure to individual wheels.
The unit includes the ABS pump and a section of the wiring harness, allowing for straightforward replacement. It is often sought after by professional mechanics and car enthusiasts performing self-repairs, especially when searching by OEM product codes such as 9663241380 or 0265235235.
Function and Importance
The ABS ESP control module plays a critical role in braking safety and vehicle stability. It constantly monitors wheel speed sensors and modulates hydraulic pressure during braking to avoid skidding, improve traction, and support better handling in adverse conditions. A faulty module can lead to warning lights on the dashboard and compromise braking performance.
Installation and Maintenance
Replacing this control module involves disconnecting the battery, removing the faulty ABS unit from the engine bay or wheel well area depending on the model, then attaching the new module with its pump and wiring segment. Proper diagnostic tools are recommended to reset system codes and calibrate the module after installation.
Common failure causes include electrical faults due to moisture ingress or wiring damage, as well as wear on hydraulic pump components. Regular vehicle diagnostics during maintenance can help detect early signs of malfunction.
