Re: A strange sound

From my understand the system performs a self test, to make sure all the components are doing their thing correctly. Which to me is why it sounds the same as when the ABS is actually engaging.

I know a couple times when I've had wheel speed sensor issues, the lights don't come on as soon as I turn the car on, but once I start moving above a certain speed (very low, like 3-5 mph) they would.

Have you ever been on the brakes hard enough to hear what the ABS system sounds like?
