Did you know that ABS stands for Anti-lock Braking System? This feature is essential for preventing wheels from locking up during emergency braking, especially at high speeds and slippery conditions, which can reduce the likelihood of accidents.
However, ABS does not activate at low speeds and only works from a range of 25KPH. In modern cars with Automatic Transmission System, a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor can cause the transmission system to shift poorly or jerk. This happens when the wheel speed sensor sends incorrect speeds to the Electronic Control Module (ECM), which makes the transmission unsure of the right gear to use.
If you see the ABS warning light showing on your dashboard, it's crucial to fix it immediately. Not only can this light damage your vehicle speed sensor, but it can also harm your car gearbox over time. The longer you drive with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor, the more you're damaging your gearbox gradually.
Don't wait! It's effortless to fix a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor. Diagnose the exact wheel speed sensor that's faulty, replace the bad one, and calibrate the ABS system to get your car back on the road.
