Overview
The ZF 4651.109.404 PARKING BRAKE is a critical safety and holding component engineered specifically for the WG 100 Series transmission. This OEM genuine part engages mechanically to lock the output shaft, preventing vehicle roll-away when parked or during stationary operation. Located within the rear section of the transmission assembly, it interfaces directly with the 4651101005: TRANSMISSION HOUSING to ensure secure engagement. The SKU 4651.109.404 is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, guaranteeing reliable performance in heavy-duty industrial applications.
Symptoms of Failure
- Intermittent parking brake release or failure to hold on inclines: When the internal friction discs or actuation mechanism wear, the brake may slip, causing the vehicle to creep even when engaged.
- Grinding or clunking noise during engagement: Worn components within the 4651.109.404 assembly can produce metallic sounds, indicating damaged splines or seized pistons.
- Oil leaks near the rear transmission flange: Degraded seals in the parking brake unit allow transmission fluid to escape, often visible as drips around the 0634303928: O-RING interface.
- Increased pedal or lever travel before brake locks: Excessive clearance from worn linings or stretched springs reduces engagement force, requiring more operator input.
