ABS

ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) consists of a set of sensors for each wheel that notifies a computer when the wheel locks during extreme or emergency braking conditions. The computer releases the brake many times per second eliminating the need to pump the brake pedal allowing the driver to maintain steering control.

Using ABS brakes is simple, just press down on the brake pedal and continue steering your vehicle. You may also experience pulsating in your brake pedal or hear a humming noise that only indicates that the ABS working. If there is no pulsating or a humming noise your brakes may not be locking up, so the ABS is not needed.

If your ABS braking system fails, a warning light will come on. Although your ABS warning light is on, your main braking system is unaffected and you will be able to stop. You should have your brakes serviced as soon as possible.
