What does it mean when the ASR light is on?

[LaArianna]

Here are the specific reasons why the ABS light in a car may illuminate: 1. Faulty wheel speed sensor. 2. ABS circuit malfunction. 3. Failure of the ABS pump or pressure regulating solenoid valve. 4. Malfunction in the ABS computer system. When the ABS light is on, it indicates a fault in the ABS system. The ABS system may stop functioning, causing the vehicle to behave as if it doesn't have ABS. This results in reduced braking effectiveness, increased braking distance, and poorer handling during braking. Therefore, when the ABS light comes on, the owner should promptly address the issue by visiting the nearest 4S store for inspection and repair.
