Modern vehicles use increasingly sophisticated electronic braking systems, and the ABS warning light is one way your car tells you something needs attention.

What the ABS light means

It indicates that the vehicle has detected a fault relating to the anti-lock braking system or its monitoring. The cause needs diagnosis rather than guesswork.

Why it's worth investigating even if braking feels normal

If an ABS or brake-system warning light appears, don't simply ignore it because the car still seems to stop normally. ABS plays an important role in maintaining control during emergency braking, particularly in poor conditions.

How it's diagnosed

DB Autos provides vehicle diagnostics alongside mechanical repairs, allowing us to investigate electronic as well as mechanical brake-system problems.

Call 01782 844320 or bring your vehicle in if your ABS warning light is on.
