My 1995 Ford Explorer XLT has 4 fuses for the ABS system - 2 in the fuse panel and 2 in the power distribution box in the engine compartment
There is a fuse for almost every electrical part on the car. To disable the ABS system on this vehicle, the person needs to pull the ABS fuse or relay. On the diagram it will be labeled as ABS.
This means there is a component that is not working properly or not working at all in your abs system, it could also mean you have no power going to your abs system or an open wire in your abs system. It could also be the that the fuse is blown for you abs system.
You could remove the ABS fuse but the ABS dash light will remain on indicating the ABS system is not functioning.
Take the fuse out.
Pull the abs fuse in the under hood fuse box it will be under a black cover Then troubleshoot and repair the issue with the system. ABS systems should not be disabled - they serve a safety related purpose - and they have been proved effective.
Could be anything from an ABS system fuse , sensor etc . malfunction
Removing the ABS fuse can be very dangerous. With the antilock braking system not working, if you apply the brake pedal you run a risk of the tires locking up, causing the car to skid dangerously.
AnswerABS stands for Antilock Brake System. If the light stays on, then there is a problem with the ABS system. You will have normal braking but the ABS will not function. Check the 60 amp fuse in the fuse box. If missing or blown, the ABS light will be lit on the dash panel.If the fuse is missing, it disables the anti-lock feature of the braking system. If the brakes are otherwise in working order, you will still be able to brake. ABS can be disabled this way if the ABS module is causing braking problems or if you just hate the way ABS feels. Note that a sticky front brake caliper can cause the ABS to activate at the wrong time, releasing the brakes when you wish to stop. :-o I had the fuse removed from the fuse box for this reason until the caliper was replaced.If the fuse is blown, you will probably want to find out why. A brake specialist or auto electrician may be needed.
a malfunction with your ABS braking system has been detected , could be a fuse , an ABS sensor , or some other problem
You probably have a short in your abs system which has blown your fuse try pulling the fuse. This happened in my 2000 sunfire and I pulled the fuse and all the gauges work now.
You can pull the relay and/or fuse out and the light will go off. It will also disengage a faulty abs system.
A malfunction has been detected with the Anti-lock Braking System ( ABS ) could be a fuse , an ABS sensor , or some other problem * in my case , the ABS light suddenly came on and the first ABS fuse that I checked was not installed all the way . I touched the fuse with my finger , heard a " click " and the ABS light went out ( just lucky I guess , but also suspicious of how that could have happened )
