The ABS keeps you safe from skidding in case of heavy braking. The ABS light might get illuminated due to a blown fuse. Check the level of the brake fluid and also inspect the wheel speed sensor. See this slideshow to find more about the reasons behind the illuminated ABS light in a car.

1. What are the Reasons
Behind the Illuminated
ABS Light in the Car?

2. ABS or anti-brake systems are
used in cars for keeping you
safe in case of heavy braking.

3. The main role of ABS is to make sure
that you never lose control of your car.

4. Allow the car wheels to avoid
getting locked up and skidding
uncontrollably.

5. When the ABS is failing, you will
notice the ABS light comes on and
need immediate action.

6. The following points define the
reasons behind the illuminated
ABS light in the car.

7. Busted fuse

8. Like other electrical
components, the anti-lock
system will have its own fuse.

9. Check the fuse box and
make sure that the fuse of
the ABS is not busted or
burnt.

10. A lower level of
brake fluid

11. ABS of the car also relies
on hydraulic brake fluid for
controlling the pressure.

12. Low brake fluid level may
prevent the ABS from doing its
job and stay on the ABS light.

13. Damaged wheel
speed sensor

14. Wheel speed sensors
decide the rate of moving
wheels in the car and send
data to ABS.

15. Thus, the damaged wheel
sensor of the car could cause
the ABS light to come on.

16. Failed ABS module

17. If the ABS module is faulty, then
also the ABS light illuminated on
the dashboard.

18. Due to the corrosion on the
wires causing delayed
communication and failure
of the ABS.

19. Insensitive hydraulic
valve

20. ABS releases a hydraulic
valve to increase the brake
fluid pressure to hinder
the wheels.

21. Internal wear can damage the
hydraulic valve insensitively
and comes on the ABS light.

22. ABS is the safety system that
has the ability to stop the
rotation of the wheels.

23. If it fails, the ABS lights come on
and need immediate fixing by a
mechanic.
