Section 2 (Anti-Lock Brake System - With TCS): Description: Abs
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Subaru Legacy and 1995 Subaru Legacy. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-up during heavy braking. ABS electronically controls brake fluid pressure, reducing chance of wheel lock-up. This allows driver to maintain better steering control of vehicle. Major components of ABS system are 4 wheel speed sensors, 4 tone rings, ABS/TCS control unit, hydraulic unit and ABS warning light.
