How to Deal with the Illuminated ABS Light?
1 Answers
When the ABS light is illuminated, it indicates a fault in the ABS system (usually a damaged sensor), which prevents it from functioning normally. However, it does not affect normal braking, and you can continue driving. Here are the solutions and additional information: 1. Schedule a visit to a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop for maintenance. It's important to note that in extreme conditions (such as high-speed driving or icy roads), sudden braking may cause the wheels to lock up. 2. Lock-up refers to a situation where, during braking, the tires stop rotating completely after a single brake application. This can easily lead to loss of vehicle control and cause traffic accidents or other hazards. The Anti-lock Braking System, abbreviated as ABS, functions by automatically controlling the braking force during vehicle braking to prevent wheel lock-up, keeping the wheels in a state of rolling and sliding (with a slip ratio of about 20%), ensuring maximum traction between the tires and the road surface.
