Default 3 channel? 4 channel???

i did a search and didnt find any real information and it probably been posted a millions times but....how do i know if its a 3 channel or 4 channel. i think it has to do with abs and tcs. i only have abs and there is a wire going to what i guess u could call a plug on top of the center unit(pumpkin). im ordering a moser 12 bolt tomorow morning and i think i need to know this info. thanks in advance.

If you have traction control you have 4 channel. If not its a 3 channel.
The difference is in the gear for the traction control, it is located behind the wheel studs.
The wire you refer to is your rear wheel speed sensor, if you had 2 then you would know its a 4 channel. So to answer your question, by what you have told me so far it looks like you have a 3 channel setup.

Sensor plug in on top of the pumpkin/no ASR - 3 channel ABS.
