The ABS sensor is a crucial component of the vehicle's braking system, responsible for monitoring wheel speed and sending data to the ABS system. If the front right/left ABS sensor (compatible with Proton Iriz / New Persona 16Y - PW922636) malfunctions, it could lead to several issues affecting the ABS system:
1) Increased Braking Distance: The ABS system may not be able to properly modulate braking pressure, possibly leading to longer stopping distances and increased accident risk.
2) Wheel Lockup During Braking: A faulty sensor might cause the ABS system to fail in preventing wheel lockup during emergency braking.
3) ABS Warning Light Activation: The ABS warning light on the dashboard might illuminate, indicating a problem with the system.
4) Decreased Vehicle Stability: On slippery or uneven surfaces, reduced effectiveness of the ABS system could lead to decreased vehicle stability.
Replacing a faulty ABS sensor is critical to maintaining safe driving conditions. Ensure the use of original parts (PW922636) to maintain optimal performance and safety of the vehicle.
