1 Answers
If the ABS pump fails, the vehicle may experience the following issues: 1. Inability to prevent wheel lock-up during emergency braking, posing a safety hazard; 2. The ABS warning light will illuminate, and the brake pads may not reset. Causes of ABS pump failure include: 1. Faulty ABS wheel speed sensor; 2. ABS wiring connection issues; 3. ABS control unit programming errors; 4. ABS master cylinder failure. The functions of ABS are: 1. Maximizing braking efficiency, reducing braking time and distance; 2. Effectively preventing vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability; 3. Allowing steering during emergency braking for better maneuverability; 4. Reducing tire wear by minimizing violent friction between tires and the road.
