What Causes the Anti-Skid Light to Illuminate in a Volkswagen Bora Automatic Transmission?

[McEmily]

There are two scenarios when the anti-skid light illuminates in a Volkswagen Bora automatic transmission. 1. If the anti-skid light flashes briefly, it indicates that the wheels are experiencing skidding, and the vehicle's computer will automatically activate the system. 2. If the light stays on continuously, it suggests that the sensor interface is detached or malfunctioning, requiring inspection and reset. Below are methods to prevent skidding in a Volkswagen Bora automatic transmission: 1. Ensure the vehicle's braking system is functioning properly to guarantee that the front and rear wheels generate balanced braking force simultaneously, preventing the rear wheels from locking up before the front wheels or causing the vehicle to deviate from its normal driving direction due to uneven force distribution across all four wheels. 2. When driving on wet or snowy roads, maintain a steady speed and operate the accelerator pedal smoothly, avoiding sudden hard acceleration or abrupt deceleration. If skidding occurs during acceleration, immediately reduce the throttle. 3. Learn to control the speed correctly. For vehicles not equipped with ABS, use the intermittent braking method in emergencies—first press the brake pedal forcefully to about half to three-quarters of its travel, then release it by a quarter, repeating this rapid pressing and releasing of the brake pedal multiple times to slow down and stop the vehicle.
