1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz ABS stops working and refers to the user manual means that the vehicle's ABS system has stopped functioning. The ABS in a car is the Anti-lock Braking System. During braking, ABS automatically controls the braking force to prevent the wheels from locking up, keeping them in a state of rolling and sliding to ensure maximum traction between the wheels and the road. ABS quickly determines the wheel lock-up state based on speed signals from each wheel speed sensor, closing the normally open input solenoid valve on the wheel that is starting to lock, thereby maintaining the braking force. Components of the ABS system: ABS typically consists of components such as wheel speed sensors, brake pressure modulation devices, ABS electronic control units, and ABS warning lights. The control channels of ABS systems are categorized into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and one-channel types. Possible causes of failure: Failure causes include damaged or dirty sensors, which may require cleaning or replacement; damaged or dirty signal wheels, necessitating cleaning or bearing replacement; damaged ABS control units, requiring control unit replacement; loose or broken ABS wiring, needing repair or harness replacement. If the ABS light is on, it is recommended to visit a repair facility as soon as possible for inspection and repair to determine the cause of the failure.
