Common Signs Your ABS Might Be Failing

When your ABS warning light pops up on the dash, it’s not something you want to ignore. That light’s there for a reason. You might also feel the brake pedal pulsing oddly, or notice that your wheels lock up under hard braking. Sometimes it’s a sensor fault, other times it’s the ABS pump or module starting to give up. Either way, getting it checked early can save you from a bigger bill down the line – and more importantly, keep you safe when you need to stop fast.

What Causes ABS System Problems

ABS systems are clever bits of kit, but they take a lot of wear over time. The most common culprits are corroded sensors, broken wiring, or dirt build-up around the wheel hubs. Road salt in winter can also mess with the sensor rings, especially on older cars or vans. In some cases, the hydraulic control unit starts to stick or leak. We’ve seen it all – from simple sensor swaps to full pump rebuilds – and it’s always worth catching early before it affects your normal braking.

How We Diagnose ABS Faults

We start with a proper scan using up-to-date diagnostic tools to read any fault codes from your car’s system. From there, we physically inspect the wiring, sensors, and connectors around each wheel. We don’t just rely on what the computer says – sometimes a bit of old-school checking goes a long way. Once we know what’s wrong, we’ll explain it clearly before doing any work, so you know exactly what’s being fixed and why.

Repairing & Replacing ABS Components

Depending on the issue, repairs might involve replacing a faulty sensor, cleaning the reluctor rings, or fitting a new ABS pump or control module. We use quality parts and follow proper procedures for bleeding the system and resetting the fault codes. On some vehicles, the module can be reconditioned instead of replaced, which helps keep costs down. Whatever the job, we make sure your braking system works exactly as it should before you leave.

Why Regular Brake Checks Matter

ABS is only one part of your braking system, but it works hand-in-hand with everything else. Keeping your brakes serviced means better control, shorter stopping distances, and peace of mind. Even if your ABS light isn’t on, it’s worth having the system checked now and then – especially if you’ve had other brake work done recently. It’s a simple way to make sure everything’s working together properly.
