When the vehicle is driven over 7 mph (11 km/h), you

may also hear a slight clicking sound as well as some

related motor noises. These noises are the system per-

forming its self check cycle to ensure that the ABS system

is working properly. This self check occurs each time the

vehicle is started and accelerated past 7 mph (11 km/h).
ABS is activated during braking under certain road or

stopping conditions. ABS-inducing conditions can in-

clude ice, snow, gravel, bumps, railroad tracks, loose

debris, or panic stops.
You also may experience the following when the brake

system goes into anti-lock:
• The ABS motor running (it may continue to run for a

short time after the stop)

• The clicking sound of solenoid valves
• Brake pedal pulsations

• A slight drop or fall away of the brake pedal at the end

of the stop

These are all normal characteristics of ABS.

WARNING!

The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) contains so-

phisticated electronic equipment that may be sus-
ceptible to interference caused by improperly in-
stalled or high output radio transmitting
equipment. This interference can cause possible
loss of anti-lock braking capability. Installation of
such equipment should be performed by qualified
professionals.
