Your ABS Pump’s System

The purpose of anti-lock brakes is to reduce the skidding that can occur with sudden stops or stops on slick surfaces. The system helps your vehicle stop quickly and allows you to control the steering while you are braking. The complete ABS system includes the pump, valves, a controller and speed sensors.

ABS Pumps

Your ABS pump is normally part of the complete hydraulic valve assembly. The pump unit consists of a pump motor, electronic control module and solenoid valve assembly. The brakes lines feed into and out of this system.

To control the braking system, valves will reduce and release pressure to your brakes. The valves open to allow pressure from the master cylinder to flow to your brakes. The valves will move into a closed position to prevent further pressure from building in extreme braking. The valves will then begin to release pressure to provide control. This pressure needs to be restored and that is the function of the ABS pump.

Often the only time you will know that your pump is failing is when the ABS warning light goes on in your dash assembly. You can tell that the system is working when you feel pulsing in your brake pedal while applying the brakes.

On new vehicles, the valve assembly can sometimes be replaced without replacing the ABS control module. Purchasing a used ABS pump will save you a significant amount of money over a new pump purchase.
