That day when I was driving my Peugeot 308, the ABS light suddenly came on, which gave me a start. Since ABS is a crucial component of the anti-lock braking system, a malfunction could cause the wheels to lock up during braking, increasing the risk of an accident. I remember last time the light came on because a wheel speed sensor was dirty, and cleaning it myself didn’t help—I ended up having to go to the repair shop. When dealing with this issue, first check if any other warning lights are also on, then gently press the brake pedal to test its response. If the brakes feel soft or unusual, pull over immediately and don’t take risks. The ABS module in Peugeots can sometimes act up, especially in older 308 models. I’d advise against trying to fix it yourself; instead, take it to a proper repair shop to read the fault codes for an accurate diagnosis, or you might end up wasting money on unnecessary repairs. Safety comes first—if the light is on, avoid driving on the highway.
