The ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is a safety technology that helps prevent the phenomenon of wheels being locked when braking suddenly, thereby helping the driver maintain the ability to control the vehicle in emergency situations. The ABS light on the taplo watch is responsible for reporting the status of this system.
Even if the ABS system is faulty, the vehicle can still use a normal braking system. However, if the brake warning light is also on, the vehicle owner should immediately stop the vehicle and call for help to take the vehicle to the garage for repair, avoiding the risk of accidents.
According to QCVN 122:2024, if the ABS indicator light shows an error, the vehicle will be assessed as having an important defect or damage (MaD), which means it will not pass the inspection when inspecting.
Therefore, to avoid wasting time and costs, vehicle owners should carefully check the system and be required to fix the ABS light problem before taking the vehicle for inspection.
