What Causes the Anti-Skid Light to Illuminate in the Patrol?
1 Answers
Patrol's anti-skid light illuminates due to a sensor malfunction. If there is a navigation system, it might interfere, causing potential tire slippage, and the vehicle may determine that it is at risk of losing control. Use a computer to inspect the ABS sensor and eliminate the fault. Resolving the ABS light will turn off the anti-skid light. Below are two possible scenarios regarding system faults: Only the ABS Warning Light is On: If only the ABS warning light is illuminated while driving, it indicates a fault in the ABS system, but the vehicle can still rely on the conventional braking system for braking. It is advisable to seek professional inspection and repair as soon as possible. Both ABS Warning Light and Brake System Warning Light are On: If both the ABS warning light and the brake system warning light are illuminated while driving, it indicates faults in both the ABS and brake systems, and the braking characteristics may change. In the latter case, you must stop driving immediately and check the brake fluid level. If the fluid level is at or below the "min" mark, do not continue driving and seek professional inspection and repair. If the fluid level is normal, it may indicate a fault in the ABS system, meaning the ABS regulation function has failed, and only the regular braking system is operational. This can cause the rear wheels to lock up more quickly during braking, leading to skidding. Drive cautiously and arrange for repairs as soon as possible.
