The ABS system is designed to maintain vehicle control and provide optimal braking when the brake pedal is pressed sharply on any road surface.
Hydraulic system
The hydraulic system consists of a master cylinder, an electric pump and accumulator, a relay system and a brake fluid reservoir.
Wheel speed sensors
Sensors are installed on each of the wheels and inform the electronic control unit about the rotation speed of each wheel.
Electronic control unit
The electronic control unit is mounted on a bracket in the engine compartment. The main function of the control unit is to process data from the wheel speed sensors and regulate the pressure in the circuit of each brake.
Diagnostics and repair
If the ABS warning light on the instrument panel comes on and does not go out while driving, it means that a fault has been detected in the ABS system.
