What are the effects of a faulty left front wheel ABS sensor?
1 Answers
abs sensor is broken, the most direct effect is that the ABS warning light on the dashboard will illuminate. Additionally, during emergency braking, the wheels may lock up, leading to skidding and loss of control. Below is an introduction to ABS sensors: 1. Overview: The ABS sensor is used in the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) of motor vehicles. Most ABS systems use inductive sensors to monitor vehicle speed. The ABS sensor interacts with a toothed ring that rotates synchronously with the wheel, outputting a set of quasi-sinusoidal alternating current signals whose frequency and amplitude are related to wheel speed. This output signal is sent to the ABS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to enable real-time monitoring of wheel speed. 2. Types: Ring-type wheel speed sensor: The ring-type wheel speed sensor mainly consists of a permanent magnet, induction coil, and toothed ring. The permanent magnet is composed of several pairs of magnetic poles. As the toothed ring rotates, the magnetic flux inside the induction coil alternates, generating an induced electromotive force. This signal is input to the ABS ECU through the cable at the end of the induction coil. When the speed of the toothed ring changes, the frequency of the induced electromotive force also changes.
