Anti Lock Brake (ABS) Control Module |
The ABS controller is the main hydraulic pump that allow the anti-lock brakes to work.
The ABS system watches the speed of each wheel. If any wheel goes into a skid while braking the ABS controller will release the brakes for that wheel to prevent the vehicle from going into a skid.
On many newer model cars the ABS system also is used for stability control. If the vehicle starts to go into a spin during normal driving the ABS computer will apply the brakes on a wheel to help pull out of the spin.
