The reason for the simultaneous illumination of the ABS light and anti-skid light in the Lingpai is that the vehicle's wheels have experienced a skidding condition, causing the anti-skid light to turn on. The skidding also leads to disordered ABS wheel speed data, which triggers the ABS light. Pressing the anti-skid OFF button and restarting the vehicle can resolve the issue. Taking the 2020 Lingpai Comfort Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4756mm, width 1804mm, height 1509mm, with a wheelbase of 2730mm. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 109 PS, a maximum power of 80 kW, and a maximum torque of 134 Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
I often encounter Civic owners mentioning the issue of both the ABS light and anti-skid light illuminating simultaneously, which is generally rooted in the wheel speed sensor. The sensor monitors wheel speed, and if it gets dirty from mud or water or wears out internally, signal errors can trigger alarms in both systems. Common faults also include loose wiring or control module issues, especially after rainy days or driving on bumpy roads. I recommend first checking if the sensors near the wheels are clean, but avoid disassembling the car yourself, as this system involves braking and anti-skid safety. It's best to visit a professional shop to scan the OBD fault codes to confirm the cause, such as the sensor number. Delaying repairs poses significant risks, such as vehicle instability during emergency braking. Regular cleaning of the sensors can prevent most issues.
