fact is if you dont lock up your tires abs sould not come on one from subaru abs test http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZzdyH8ethY

dose anyone know how abs works? do you know what tires kick in. Do you know there many different types of abs. you guy know why the pedel puses when the abs kicks in. when the abs is not actvated its like not having abs which is like your day to day driving. most abs in (newer cars) dont kick in tell one or more tires start to lock up, when it locks up the wheel senter actvateds the abs pump witch is like a on and off switch for your brakes,thats why your pedel puses. now the time that i have found when the abs dosent work right is when someone dose brakes and they go to bleed the brakes, and dose not do it right. if you have air in your abs pump its not going to work right. so you guys know the pump actvateds as little 2 tires at a time or all 4 tires. so if the front right tire locks up in mud snow , the abs will primerly actvated that front right and the left rear that way it keep the car where you aim. go to a gravel road hit your brakes and you will fill the abs pump kick and you can hear the pump to, get out and look at the gravel where your tires were then do the same with a car without abs and you can see how abs can help you. when you lock up your tires you will start to faster also when you lock up your tires you cant turn so this was a small run down of abs there is alot more to it it dose help
