This Bosch ABS control module with part number 0273004440, including the wiring harness, is specifically designed for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, notably the Citroën Xsara and Peugeot 306 models. It functions as the electronic control unit for the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), managing the pump and valves to prevent wheel lockup during braking, ensuring enhanced vehicle stability and safety.

Function and Importance

The ABS control module regulates the hydraulic pump and solenoid valves to modulate brake pressure during emergency braking. This prevents wheel lock, reduces skidding, and maintains steering control. Over time, ABS modules may fail due to electronic faults, wiring issues, or pump wear caused by frequent ABS activation in rough driving conditions.

Installation Notes

Replacement involves disconnecting the old unit, including the wiring harness, and installing the new Bosch module. Proper care should be taken to avoid damage to the connectors and ensure correct electrical connections. After replacement, the system may require diagnostic tool calibration to restore full functionality.

This unit includes the electronic control module, the hydraulic pump, and comes complete with wiring harness for easy installation. The pump works by regulating brake fluid pressure to maintain traction and control, reducing the risk of skidding in emergency situations.

ABS control modules can fail over time due to electrical malfunctions, wear of the hydraulic pump, or contamination within the system. Symptoms of a failing ABS unit include warning lights on the dashboard, brake pedal pulsations, or reduced braking efficiency during hard stops. Replacing the module restores the proper function of the ABS system, critical for safe driving conditions.

Installation typically requires disconnecting the battery, removing the old ABS unit along with its wiring, and fitting the new module. It is highly recommended that programming or system resetting be done with appropriate diagnostic tools to ensure fault-free operation.

This unit integrates the electronic control module and hydraulic pump, ensuring optimal braking performance during emergency stops by preventing wheel lock-up and maintaining vehicle stability.

It is compatible with popular models such as the Citroën Xsara and Peugeot 306. Installation involves connecting the module to the vehicle’s ABS hydraulic system and the onboard electronics, typically located near the engine bay. Replacement is recommended if ABS warning lights activate, braking performance decreases, or hydraulic pump failures occur.

Failures often result from electrical faults, wear of internal components, or contamination of the hydraulic fluid. Proper maintenance of brake fluid and timely diagnosis can prolong the lifespan of the module.
