How to solve the ABS warning light issue on Roewe?
3 Answers
There are two methods to resolve this: one is to visit a repair shop and use diagnostic equipment to clear the fault. The other method involves manual operation - locate the car battery, disconnect the negative terminal for a few minutes, then reconnect it. The ABS warning light will then turn off.
I've encountered the ABS warning light coming on several times, especially when driving my Roewe. That one winter with heavy snowfall, the wheel speed sensors got muddy which caused signal inaccuracies. After I cleaned them myself, the light went off. If cleaning doesn't work, you'll need to check the wiring - the connections near the tires are prone to loosening or corrosion. The ABS control module can sometimes malfunction too. My suggestion is to first try restarting the vehicle - with some luck, a system reset might fix it. If that doesn't work, don't mess around blindly. The ABS system is critical for braking safety - when faulty, emergency braking can cause wheel lockup and accidents. It's best to get it professionally diagnosed at a repair shop immediately. Regular wheel cleaning during car washes helps prevent issues - prevention is the most cost-effective approach.
It's really unsettling when the ABS light suddenly comes on. I think the main reasons could be a dirty sensor causing inaccurate signals, a short circuit disabling the system, or a blown fuse cutting off power. It's best to first check if the small sensor near the wheel is clean; once I tried restarting the car and the light went off, which was a temporary issue. If that doesn't work, you'll need to test if the wiring connections are tight. Doing it yourself is a bit more challenging but saves money. However, when ABS fails, braking performance decreases—safety first, don't cut corners and risk an accident. Use a diagnostic tool to read the fault codes as soon as possible to identify the root cause and get it fixed.
