ABS system components

What Are ABS System Components?

ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) components work together to prevent wheel lock-up during braking, improving control, stopping distance and stability. At A-Z Motor Factors Halifax, we supply high-quality ABS parts including sensors, pumps, modules, tone rings and wiring for all vehicle makes and models.

How the ABS System Works

The ABS system uses real-time wheel speed data to regulate hydraulic brake pressure. When a wheel is about to lock:

• Sensors detect wheel deceleration

• The ABS module processes the signal

• The ABS pump modulates pressure

• Braking remains smooth and controlled

A healthy ABS system ensures maximum grip in emergency braking and slippery conditions.

ABS Components We Supply

We stock a full range of anti-lock brake system parts, including:

✔ ABS Wheel Speed Sensors

Measure wheel rotation and send data to the ABS control unit.

✔ ABS Pumps / Hydraulic Modulators

Regulate brake pressure to prevent wheel lock.

✔ ABS Control Modules / ECU Units

The electronic brain of the ABS system.

✔ ABS Rings / Tone Rings

Trigger wheel speed sensor readings for accurate signal generation.

✔ ABS Sensor Wiring & Looms

Repair damaged or worn ABS connections.

✔ Complete ABS Assemblies

Pump + module combined for plug-and-play replacements.

All parts meet OE specifications for reliability and safety.

Signs Your ABS System Needs Attention

Replace or inspect ABS components if you notice:

• ABS warning light on dashboard

• Intermittent braking issues

• Traction control warning light

• Skidding under heavy braking

• Pulsation in the pedal

• Fault codes during diagnostics

• Damaged tone rings or exposed wiring

ABS-related faults often cause MOT advisories or failures.

Why ABS System Components Fail

Common causes include:

• Road salt corrosion

• Damaged tone rings

• Sensor contamination

• Broken wiring

• Pump motor failure

• Internal ABS module faults

• Water ingress

Replacing faulty ABS components restores full stability and brake control.

Left / Right & Front / Rear Fitment

ABS system parts vary based on:

• Wheel location

• Drivetrain (FWD/RWD/4x4)

• Brake setup

• Sensor mounting design

• Tone ring size

• Module/pump compatibility
