The ABS Anti-lock Braking System warning light turning on usually indicates an issue with one of the ABS sensors o r the overall system. Common causes include:

Faulty Wheel Speed Sensor: Each wheel has a speed sensor that measures its rotation speed. If a wheel speed sensor is malfunctioning o r damaged, the ABS system may not be able to function properly, causing the warning light to turn on.

ABS Module o r Relay Failure: The ABS module is responsible for controlling the ABS system. If this module is malfunctioning o r there is a problem with the ABS relay, the ABS warning light will be triggered.

Low Brake Fluid o r Brake Issues: In some cases, low brake fluid o r other brake-related issues can activate the ABS warning light.

Solution:

Diagnosis: A diagnostic scan will help identify whether the issue is with the wheel speed sensors, ABS module, o r another component.
Repair: If a wheel speed sensor is faulty, it will need to be replaced. Similarly, the ABS module o r relay may need to be repaired o r replaced. Low brake fluid should be topped up, and any other brake-related issues should be addressed.
