Imagine that during rain or on a slippery road, the ABS light on your dashboard comes on. This could mean that your braking system is not functioning as it should, which is dangerous for you and your passengers. Our specialists will quickly check and fix any issues related to the ABS system to restore safe vehicle control and prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking. We perform the work carefully and with your peace of mind in mind.
Signs of Problems with the Braking System and ABS

- The car locks the wheels during sudden braking
- The brake pedal feels soft or 'sinks'
- Brakes behave erratically on slippery roads
- ABS sensor error after installing new wheels
- Uneven braking or the car pulls to one side
- Strange noise or vibration when braking
- The car responds poorly to sudden braking
What Does ABS System Maintenance and Repair Include?
- Checking the condition of the system fuses
- Inspecting and cleaning sensor connections near the wheels
- Disconnecting and checking brake hoses
- Diagnosing and replacing a faulty modulator (ABS pump)
- Refilling and updating brake fluid
- Bleeding the brake system to restore pressure
- Calibrating the system after installing larger wheels
- Checking and fixing errors caused by other malfunctions, such as CV joints
Additional Information About the Service
ABS System Repair is an important procedure that helps restore reliable operation of your vehicle's braking system and safety on the road. We pay attention to every component of the system to identify and resolve issues that hinder the proper functioning of the anti-lock braking system.
Diagnostics and Preparation
First, our specialists conduct a thorough inspection of the fuses and electrical connections of the sensors located near the wheels. This helps to pinpoint where the problem has arisen. We also check the condition of the brake hoses and the modulator - the pump responsible for controlling brake pressure.
Repair and Replacement of Parts
If we find faults in the modulator, we can replace it with a new one to fully restore the system's functionality. In some cases, problems are caused by dirty or corroded connectors - in such situations, cleaning and securely fastening them is sufficient. We also disconnect the brake hoses for inspection and, if necessary, refresh the brake fluid, removing air from the system that disrupts normal brake pressure.
Final Check and Recommendations
After the repair, we always check the operation of the ABS system in various modes to ensure everything is working as it should. If you have changed to larger wheels, we perform system calibration, as this is important for the proper functioning of the anti-lock braking system. We will advise you on how to properly monitor the brake fluid level and what to pay attention to in order to avoid recurring issues.
