Wheel lock-up can result in a loss of steering ability, which is why modern vehicles are equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) to prevent this from happening during emergency braking. When you brake hard, you may feel a strong rebound under your foot, indicating that the ABS has been activated. Below is a detailed introduction to the ABS system: Function of the ABS system: ABS is a vehicle anti-lock braking system and belongs to the active safety systems of a car. When the ABS light comes on, it means the vehicle's computer has detected a fault in the ABS system. Principle of the ABS light: Under normal driving conditions, the ABS remains dormant. It only activates during emergency braking, such as during high-speed hard braking, when the vehicle's computer determines that ABS intervention is necessary. When the ABS light comes on, it is often due to the wheel speed sensors not functioning properly. The ABS computer cannot detect the driving conditions of each wheel or compare the slip amounts of the wheels, preventing the ABS system from operating correctly.
