Anti-Lock Brake Systems

NOTE: Anti-lock brakes are an integral part of the brake system. It is essential that the Anti-lock brakes function properly when brake service is performed. Anti-lock brake systems are commonly referred to as "" ABS"" and will be referred to as ABS throughout these guidelines. Some ABS components also function as part of a traction control system (TCS). When diagnosing and servicing high pressure components, observe safety procedures and equipment requirements established by the vehicle manufacturer to reduce the possibility of serious personal injury.

NOTE: Intermittent electrical conditions are often caused by a loss of ground, poor connection, or water intrusion into the wiring harness. Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) may be caused by incorrect installation of accessories or components. EMI can result in improper system operation.
