What causes the ABS light to illuminate in the Great Wall M4?
1 Answers
The illumination of the ABS light in the Great Wall M4 indicates an issue with the ABS system. There are two scenarios: only the ABS warning light is on while driving, or both the ABS warning light and the brake system warning light are on simultaneously. The ABS light being on in the Great Wall M4 signifies that the anti-lock braking system alarm is activated. Under normal circumstances, this light turns on when the ignition is switched on or the engine is started, and the system enters an automatic detection program. After the detection is completed, the light should turn off. If the light does not illuminate when the ignition is switched on, remains on without turning off, or lights up while driving, it indicates a system malfunction. If only the ABS warning light is on while driving: This indicates a fault within the ABS system, but the vehicle can still rely on the conventional braking system for braking. It is advisable to have a professional inspect and repair the system as soon as possible. If both the ABS warning light and the brake system warning light are on while driving: This indicates that both the ABS and the brake system have faults, and the braking characteristics may change. You must stop driving immediately and check the brake fluid level. If the level is below the "MIN" mark, do not continue driving and seek professional repair. If the fluid level is normal, it suggests a possible ABS system malfunction, meaning the ABS regulation function has failed. In this case, drive with caution and arrange for repairs as soon as possible.
