When does the ABS system activate?
1 Answers
ABS system activates during heavy braking or braking on slippery roads. ABS stands for Anti-lock Braking System, which is equipped with a speed sensor on each wheel. These sensors input wheel speed signals into the electronic control unit (ECU), which monitors and judges the motion state of each wheel based on these signals and generates corresponding control commands. The functions of ABS system include: 1. Maximizing brake 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, maintaining good steering control; 4. Avoiding severe friction between tires and road surface, reducing tire wear.
