It probably means the brakes are so crap that whatever pressure you put on the pads, they won't lock up the wheels.

My 1967 Beetle had anti-lock brakes. Especially if you drove through a deep puddle.

Well I managed to stoppie it so they must work to a certain extent.


I would have thought that meant they didn't work properly. ABS should release the brake before the back end lifts, unless I misunderstand ABS Embarassed

Think that's basically it, except they go wrong and then don't release the pressure and so lock the wheel, very f~kin annoying. You're better off taking the stupid thing off and attaching the brake hose direct to the calliper, cos it will happen!

I noticed what looked like solinoids on the calipers. Read the lable and it said, 'Pressure activated anti-lock brake system'


Sight unseen, I'd guess that's a dumb pressure relief system rather than a proper sensor-actuated system.
