Locking wheels when braking is a clear sign that the ABS pump is not working properly

Ford with diagonally fixed brakes

This may be caused by a defective ABS pump Ford ATE MK100 . ABS Control Units will help you solve this problem by overhauling the ABS pump.
Diagonally the brakes are stuck . For example RV and LA are stuck. System read, no faults in ABS control unit. You can brake, only the brake fluid does not flow back, causing the brake to stick. Some car brands, such as Ford, have this problem more often.

Symptoms may include:

• The brakes are stuck diagonally
• Vehicle pulls to one side when braking.
• Heating of brake discs, which can cause them to overheat and become damaged.
• The ABS light or other warning lights, such as ESP, may come on.
• Loss of braking power, causing the brakes to work unevenly and one of the wheels to remain locked.

If you notice any of these symptoms, do not ignore them as they can have serious consequences, such as an accident or a brake fire.

Another cause could be mechanical or electrical damage to the control module that controls the operation of the ABS pump. The system can then no longer receive correct signals, which can lead to braking problems.

How do we solve the problem of locking wheels on a Ford?

If the Ford ABS pump fails , it is essential to diagnose and repair the problem quickly. At ABS Control Units, we offer comprehensive ABS pump diagnosis and regeneration.

This process includes:

1. Replacement or regeneration of damaged valves and other mechanical components
2. Flush the ABS pump to remove contaminants and prevent further corrosion
3. Check ABS pump

Remanufacturing the ABS pump is a much more cost-effective solution than replacing it. Replacing the entire pump, especially on some Ford models e.g. Ford C-Max , Transit , Transit Connect , Tourneo , Fiesta , may require special coding and searching for the correct number, which is expensive and time-consuming. Repair, on the other hand, is a quick and effective solution that allows you to restore the full efficiency of the braking system.

The ABS pump in a Ford is one of the most important parts of the braking system. If this pump breaks, it can lead to very dangerous situations on the road, such as wheel lock-up . Regular maintenance, including changing the brake fluid, is essential to prevent this type of failure. However, if the problem has already occurred, ABS pump reconditioning is an effective and cost-effective solution that restores the full efficiency of the system and ensures safety on the road.
