How to Resolve BYD ABS System Malfunctions?
2 Answers
Inspect the charging system and check the power supply. Tighten the mounting screws and clean the contact surfaces if necessary. Check for enlarged plug gaps and replace the ABS or ABS/ASR control unit. Start the engine, depress the brake pedal, and replace the brake light switch.
When I encounter a BYD ABS system malfunction, the first thing I do is open the hood to inspect the wheel speed sensors and wiring connections. Those little components tend to get dirty or loose, so I clean the sensor heads with a cloth and check if the gap is correct. If the ABS light on the dashboard is on, it's best to first check if the related fuse in the fuse box is blown—if it is, replace it. Then, start the engine for a test drive, but don’t rush onto the highway. If the light remains on, the sensor itself might be faulty or there could be an issue with the module. In this case, I’d buy an OBD scanner online to read the fault codes, spending a few hundred bucks to fix it myself. If my DIY skills aren’t up to par, I’d immediately drive to a 4S shop or a professional repair station, because ABS issues affect braking safety, especially when driving in the rain. Regularly cleaning the mud around the sensors during car washes helps prevent dust buildup and potential problems.
