Description
Overview
The ABS Pump ATE is a critical component designed for Citroën C2 and C3 as well as Peugeot 207 vehicles. This module controls the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), ensuring optimal braking performance and vehicle stability under various driving conditions.
Function and Importance
The ABS pump regulates brake pressure dynamically to prevent wheel lock during hard braking, improving safety and control. Failure of this unit can lead to diminished braking efficiency, increased stopping distances, or warning lights on the dashboard.
Compatibility and Application
This ABS pump fits Citroën C2 and C3 first generation models and Peugeot 207. It is commonly sought after by mechanics and DIY enthusiasts as a replacement part, often identified by its original product code 9656493580 or manufacturer references 10.0970-1109.3 and 10.0207-0056.4.
Replacement and Maintenance
Replacing the ABS pump typically requires removing the old unit from the brake system and electrical connectors, then installing the new pump with the included wiring harness. Proper bleeding of the brake system after replacement is essential to ensure full functionality. ABS pumps generally have a long service life but can fail due to wear, corrosion, or electrical faults.
