Overview

About abs diagnostics & repair.

A lit ABS lamp on the trailer indicates a fault in the anti-lock system. Diagnostics trace the issue to sensors, wiring, modulators or power supply.

A mobile mechanic can look at the unit where it stands, whether that is the roadside, a yard or a jobsite. That can avoid a tow and shorten downtime when the fault is suited to on-site work.

Know before you call

Causes and good habits.

These are possibilities, not a diagnosis. The only way to know is to test the unit.

Possible causes

  • Wheel-speed sensor faults
  • Damaged wiring, pigtails or connectors
  • Power or ground problems

Practical tips

  • Check the ABS lamp during each pre-trip
  • Inspect the pigtail for cuts and corrosion
Limits and safety

What to expect.

Some ABS faults relate to the tractor connection, so both units may need checking.

On-site repair depends on the fault, parts, vehicle condition, safety and service feasibility.
