Yes. An ABS brake system uses a sensor at each wheel to identify when a wheel is locking up and then the control module automatically pulses the brakes to prevent skidding.
Question what exactly is? Figure out can't it I what from saying are you.
It means that the ABS control module has detected a problem in the ABS system. That will be impossible to determine without talking to the module with a scan tool to find out why it turned the light on. The other thing that it means is that you do not have ABS, but you now have conventional brakes. The ABS part of the brakes will not work until the problem is found out and fixed.
No. Your normal brakes will still work even if the ABS Module is bad. You will however have no ABS function.
If you disconnect the ABS module, the system will default to conventional brakes, but the ABS light will be on.
It is an ABS module for the rear brakes...

Check the fuse first...start simple and cheap.
The acronym is not abstraction control module. It is ABS/Traction Control Module. In other words, the ABS Module is also the Traction Control Module. The same module performs both functions, that is, ABS or Anti-Lock Brakes, and it performs Traction Control functions as well. In "shop-speak" however, even tough the module has both functions built in, we usually do not call it an ABS/Traction Control Module. We simply call it an ABS Module. That is probably why you have been unsuccessful in getting info on it. When you refer to it as an abstraction control module, you will just get a blank stare. Nobody will know what you mean. You are really looking for the ABS Module. The module you are looking for is located on the passenger's side of the car, down low in the engine compartment. You may be more able to see it from the underside of the vehicle, once the lower plastic shield is removed. It will be rather large, about 4 inches by 4 inches square, mounted to a metal bracket, and have several brake fluid lines going into it, and a large 1 inch by 3 inch electrical connector plugged into it.
Traction control is part of the ABS (antilock brake) module.
body control module located
Check the abs wheel speed sensors. Or the abs module could be bad
its related the the abs system. (anti lock brakes) its an ebcm, electronic brake control module.
