ABS (Anti-lockedBrakingSystem) Chinese translated as “anti-lock braking system.” It is a non-slip, anti-lock control, etc. of automobile safety systems.
1.ABS antilock What guarantee steerable vehicle in case of sudden braking to avoid obstacles with
, it is a security configuration. Enhance the braking effect in the case of brakes and shorten the braking distance. On loose surfaces such as sand, snow, ABS will significantly increase braking distance. Because in this case the locking of the wheels and the road surface will squeeze the formation of uplift, and then into a mound, and the use of the vehicle ABS is able to easily cross the ridge with such a reduction. This ABS control of the vehicle can be moved more quickly in the field or snow.
ABS can enhance vehicle handling in all cases, the general driving braking process will still be able to bypass the obstacle, which is the normal driving is almost impossible to do in a situation of no ABS , which can greatly enhance driving safety.
2.ABS antilock misunderstanding
equipped with ABS system of the car when applying the brakes, the brake pedal will be shaking up and down, that means the ABS is working properly.
ABS is equivalent to a high frequency when working snub, then step on the brake pedal in an emergency situation, you will certainly feel the brake pedal vibrate, but also to hear the brake master cylinder issued a “da click “sound, since the brake master cylinder pressure is continuously adjusted in such a continuous feedback force to the brake pedal.
Therefore, in this case, be sure to “unswervingly” to slam the brake pedal, and to take positive measures to hedge.
ABS system only when the wheel locking function similar to, but not always taken to operate during braking can be felt when the ABS work by voice and the brake pedal.
ABS warning lamp is lit without sudden panic, car brake system remains normal, but no longer have the ABS function, repair as soon as possible; ABS and handbrake lights if lit simultaneously, then the vehicle braking system may serious malfunction.
