Anti-lock brake systems (ABS) are becoming a common component in today's vehicles, making it easier for repair facilities and auto supply stores to locate the parts needed to service these systems. Numerous government studies have demonstrated the efficacy of these systems for reducing the distance needed to stop under most conditions. They also enable drivers to maintain control of their vehicles under slippery road conditions that would otherwise cause cars to lock.

Parts Needed for Servicing ABS Brake Systems

Most customers will be servicing ABS systems with the same parts used by those with conventional brakes. They may need to replace the pads or shoes, or occasionally resurface the rotors or drums, depending on the vehicle that is being serviced. In addition to servicing the pads or shoes, which provide the friction needed to stop, drivers may also need to service the electronic and hydraulic parts of the ABS braking system. For example, dirt may interfere with the sensors in the ABS system, requiring these devices to be either cleaned or replaced to maintain the proper function of the brakes. Drivers may be alerted to problems with their systems by a light on their dashboards, but most will need to visit a technician to determine the nature of the problem and have it repaired.
