ABS light

Brake system indicator

The ABS light is a dashboard warning indicator that illuminates when something is wrong with a vehicle's anti-lock braking system.

ABS prevents wheels from locking up during hard braking, so when the light comes on, the system may be disabled: The ABS light came on, so I'm taking it to the mechanic.

The brakes still work, but without the anti-lock feature.
