Whether you’re turning, stopping or accelerating, a vehicle’s anti-lock braking system (ABS) is operating, unnoticed.
It makes sure that the tires are moving at the same relative speed, based on the vehicle’s actions. For example, if you’re turning left to drive around a corner, the right wheels are going faster than the left ones.
The computer takes that data and sends it to the power control module (PCM) or engine control module (ECM). Information is constantly provided in real time, so if the computer needs to take over and engage the ABS to keep your wheels from locking up it will do that.
