  • Improves braking performance
    
  • Prevents wheel lockup: In the event of a hard braking situation, the ECU can detect if a wheel is about to lock up (skid).
    
  • Monitors wheel speed: The ECU continuously monitors the rotational speed of each wheel through the wheel speed sensors.
    
  • ABS control unit: It's a computer that receives signals from wheel speed sensors at each wheel and controls the operation of the ABS modulator valve.
    
  • Modulates brake pressure: To prevent skidding and maintain steering control, the ECU rapidly modulates (increases and decreases) the hydraulic pressure sent to each wheel via the ABS modulator valve. 
    
  • Enhances vehicle control: By maintaining some rotational speed in the wheels during braking, the ABS system allows drivers to retain steering control and avoid skidding, improving overall vehicle safety.
