Other ABS parts

Other ABS parts are key components that support the proper operation of the anti-lock braking system. With efficient components like the ABS pulse sensors and brake master cylinder, you can count on the effectiveness of the ABS system, especially in challenging driving conditions. At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts, including other ABS parts, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more .

How does the ABS system work – definition and principle of operation

The ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is an active safety system designed to prevent wheel lockup during heavy braking. It works by cyclically reducing and increasing brake pressure, up to several times per second (typically 10 to 15 cycles/s), to maintain vehicle control. Wheel speed sensors, the ABS control module, and hydraulic components, including the brake master cylinder, play a key role here. Properly functioning ABS components directly impact driving stability, especially on wet, icy, or uneven surfaces.

What elements are included in other ABS parts ?

Our offer includes the following ABS components : ABS Pulse Sensors – Key components that monitor wheel speed and send data to the ABS controller, preventing wheel lockup during braking. Brake pump – Supports the operation of the ABS system by generating the hydraulic pressure needed for effective braking.

Types and applications of ABS elements in practice

ABS pulse sensors come in various designs – inductive and active (Hall effect), and their selection depends on the system generation and the specific vehicle model. In modern cars from brands such as BMW, Audi, and Volkswagen, ABS sensors also interface with ESP, ASR, and traction control systems, expanding their range of functions. The brake master cylinder in the ABS system is responsible not only for generating pressure but also for its precise modulation between individual brake circuits, resulting in even and predictable braking.

Examples of ABS components and their applications

ABS element	Function	Collaborating systems	Typical use
ABS pulse sensor	Measurement of wheel rotational speed	ABS, ESP, ASR	BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, VW Golf
ABS brake pump	Brake pressure modulation	ABS, ESP	Mercedes C-Class, VW Passat

Why is it worth taking care of other ABS parts ?

Damage or malfunction of ABS pulse sensors or the brake master cylinder can lead to reduced braking effectiveness and an increased risk of skidding. Typical symptoms include: ABS light on dashboard on – May indicate a problem with the pulse sensors or other system components. Extended braking distance – Damage to the brake master cylinder can reduce the effectiveness of the braking system. Uneven Braking Performance – Sensor problems can disrupt ABS operation, leading to uneven braking force distribution. Noises and vibrations when braking – These may indicate faulty sensors or a leak in the brake master cylinder. At Global Parts, we offer original car parts, including ABS parts, that have undergone detailed quality tests, ensuring their durability and reliability.

The impact of efficient ABS parts on driving safety and comfort

Functional ABS parts allow you to maintain full control of the vehicle during emergency braking, shortening the actual stopping distance on slippery surfaces by up to several meters compared to a system without ABS. Importantly, a properly functioning system allows for simultaneous braking and evasive maneuvering, significantly improving safety. ABS also contributes to even wear of the braking system's friction components, supporting stable and predictable operation of the entire system.

How to choose the right ABS parts ?

When choosing ABS parts, there are several key aspects to consider: Vehicle-specific fit – Each ABS system has its own specific technical requirements. At Global Parts , you'll find ABS pulse sensors and brake master cylinders perfectly matched to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more . Technical condition – Used sensors and brake master cylinders should be free from mechanical damage, corrosion and leaks. System Compatibility – Make sure the selected components work with the other ABS components in your vehicle.

Compatibility, VIN and System Matching

Selecting the right ABS parts is primarily based on compatibility with the specific vehicle configuration, taking into account the year, engine version, and braking system type. In practice, this means compatibility with the CAN bus, the ABS controller, and other braking system components. Many models, such as the Volkswagen Golf, Audi A4, and BMW 3 Series, offer multiple ABS variants within a single generation, so precise matching is crucial for correct installation and system operation.

Why choose used ABS parts ?

Used car parts , such as ABS pulse sensors and brake master cylinders, are a practical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. By choosing used ABS parts, you benefit from: Lower costs – Used components are much cheaper than new ones, but offer equally high quality. Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste. A wide range – In our store you will find ABS pulse sensors and brake master cylinders for the most popular car brands.

Used ABS parts and operating economy

Choosing used ABS parts can significantly reduce braking system repair costs, especially in older or several-year-old vehicles, where the price of new components can be disproportionate to the vehicle's value. Original parts removed from vehicles retain full structural and assembly compatibility, facilitating integration with the existing system and maintaining the ABS system's factory operating parameters.

How to take care of ABS parts ?

To ensure that ABS pulse sensors and brake master cylinders function reliably for a long time, it is worth following a few rules: Regularly check the condition of the ABS sensors during technical inspections to prevent system malfunctions. Maintain the proper level and quality of brake fluid to ensure the efficient operation of the brake master cylinder. Monitor any signs of malfunction, such as an illuminated ABS light or noises when braking, and respond in a timely manner. If you need a replacement, you'll find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore full functionality of your ABS system.

ABS cooperation with other safety systems

The ABS system operates in close integration with other safety systems, such as ESP, ASR, and stability control. This means that efficient ABS components affect not only braking but also the vehicle's response when accelerating, cornering, or driving on surfaces with variable grip. This makes ABS the foundation of modern safety systems found in most modern cars.
