In a variant, ABS brakes are installed on the car
The anti-lock braking system is part of the car's service brake system and is designed to automatically control the degree of wheel slip in the direction of their rotation during braking by changing the pressure of the brake fluid in the working brake cylinders in order to prevent loss of vehicle control and stability and increase braking efficiency.
ABS also performs the functions of distributing braking forces along the axes of the car and distributing braking forces along the sides of the car when braking in a turn.
ABS consists of the following main units:
- - hydraulic unit;
- - two front wheel speed sensors;
- - two rear wheel speed sensors;
- - two front wheel rotors. The front wheel rotor is part of the outer joint;
- - two rear wheel rotors. The rear wheel rotor is part of the half shaft;
The hydraulic unit structurally consists of an electronic control unit and a hydraulic modulator containing electromagnetic valves, a return pump and a return pump electric motor.
Wheel speed sensors generate signals about the speed of each wheel of the vehicle, which are transmitted to the electronic control unit of the hydraulic unit.
The wheel sensors are based on the principle of electromagnetic induction.
When the wheel rotates, the teeth and cavities of a special rotor pass by the sensor and induce an electrical signal in the sensor winding, the frequency of which is proportional to the angular velocity of the wheel and the number of teeth on the rotor.
The electronic control unit performs logical processing of signals about the speed of the wheels and, depending on their condition (excessive acceleration or deceleration of the wheel), sends control commands to the hydraulic modulator.
According to the commands received, the hydraulic modulator, by turning on or off the solenoid valves, reduces, increases or maintains a constant pressure of the brake fluid in the wheel brake cylinders, thereby ensuring optimal regulation of the braking forces.
When the pressure is reduced, excess brake fluid is pumped by the return pump to the brake master cylinder.

ABS diagnostics
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) warning light illuminates amber briefly when the ignition is turned on.
This indicates that the self-test has been completed and that the and indicator lamps.
In cases where:
- the lamp does not light up when the ignition is turned on, it lights up and does not go out, it lights up while driving, there may be malfunctions in the system.
If the ABS lamp comes on, except during the self-test when the ignition is turned on, it indicates that the ABS is not working.
In this case, the operation of the hydraulic brake drive is not disturbed, but the brakes in the car will work as if there were no ABS in the car.
The electronic brake force distribution warning lamp lights up briefly in red when the ignition is switched on, simultaneously with the ABS lamp.
This indicates that the system has performed a self-test and that the indicator lamp is working.
In cases where:
- the lamp does not light up when the ignition is turned on, it lights up and does not go out, it lights up while driving, there may be malfunctions in the system.
The ignition of the electronic brake force distribution lamp always occurs simultaneously with the ABS warning lamp.
If the ABS lamp and the electronic brake force distribution lamp come on at the same time, with the exception of the self-test when the ignition is turned on, it indicates a failure of all ABS functions.
To view fault codes and ABS parameters, use the DST-2, 10.12 diagnostic tool with the appropriate firmware.

If fault codes C0035, C0040, C0045 and C0050 are found, check the electrical circuits to the corresponding DSC for an open and short circuit, check the supply voltage of the corresponding DSC (U supply DSC ≥ 0.8 U supply ECU).
If a fault code C0110 is found, check the supply voltage on pin 1 of the harness block to the hydraulic unit.
If a fault code C0121 is found, check the supply voltage on track 25 of the harness block to the hydraulic unit.
If DTC C0161 is found, check the circuit to the brake light switch for an open or short.

If DTC C0245 is found, check the reliability of the fastening of the DSC and the clearances between the DSC and the rotor.
