How to recover after wheel lockup?

[StJaxson]

Recovering from wheel lockup involves installing ABS. For vehicles equipped with ABS, when encountering emergency situations, the system continuously monitors the rotational speed of each wheel through speed sensors installed on the wheels or drive shafts. The computer calculates the wheel slip rate and the required braking force at that moment, then makes a decision on braking pressure. The controller instructs the regulator to reduce the hydraulic pressure in the wheel's brake cylinder, decreasing the braking torque. This process of repeatedly applying and releasing the brakes ensures that the vehicle's tires do not lock up. Here are some additional details: Causes of tire lockup: Prolonged parking: If the parking brake is applied when the brake drum is wet (e.g., after washing the car or rain), the wheel may lock up after being parked for an extended period. Brake caliper not retracting: This can be repaired by sanding and applying grease. If the caliper itself is faulty, it may need to be replaced directly.
