2008 Nissan-Datsun Sentra SE-RFACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE

ABS Function

  • The Anti-Lock Brake System detects wheel revolution while braking and improves handling stability during sudden braking by electrically preventing wheel lockup. Maneuverability is also improved for avoiding obstacles during emergency braking.
  • If the electrical system malfunctions, the Fail-Safe function is activated, the ABS becomes inoperative and the ABS warning lamp turns on.
  • The electrical system can be diagnosed using CONSULT-III.
  • During ABS operation, the brake pedal may vibrate lightly and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is normal.
  • Just after starting the vehicle, the brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noises may be heard from the engine compartment. This is normal due to the self check operation.
  • Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
