What is an ABS Pump?
The ABS pump is a safety feature that can be found on most vehicles, as part of the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
The whole system has been cleverly designed to stop dangerous brake locking in heavy braking situations, preventing skidding, hydroplaning and loss of traction.

How long do ABS pumps last?
The longevity of an abs pump motor is dependent on the driving conditions, and level of maintenance the vehicle is subjected to.
Modern abs systems can last as long as 100,000 miles, if properly maintained. Hydraulic brake fluid is used to actuate the brakes.
How many times does ABS pump the brakes?
At speeds above 8mph, the system can pump the brakes as fast as 15 times per second. This leaves the driver free to concentrate on controlling the vehicle, which is the goal of ABS brakes. The system improves one’s ability to steer the vehicle accurately during emergency situations.
Does ABS increase stopping distance?
In ABS-equipped vehicles, stopping distances can increase by as much as 25 percent on loose gravel, sand, or lightly packed snow. No vehicle steers as easily on a slippery road as on dry pavement, but an ABS will still help you steer to safety.
