press down hard on the brake pedal, and continue to steer the vehicle.
The driver would need to step on the brake pedal when braking a vehicle equipped with anti-lock brakes. FYI, the driver would also need to step on the brake pedal when braking a vehicle that is NOT equipped with anti-lock brakes. Hope this helps.
Stomp the brake pedal and do not release heavy pressure. Let the anti-lock brakes prevent the skid, as you steer around the obstruction if possible. The brake pedal will vibrate and you will hear some noise, but just keep pushing on the brake.
Your vehicle is equipped with abs and anti lock brakes, when applied hard enough the system interprets it as a panic stop and pulses the brakes to prevent lock up and skidding.
No- you are describing ABS- anti-lock brakes.
Pivot your foot to the brake pedal and press firmly with your toes.
Push down on the brake pedal and hold it there, do not pump.Apply the brakes in an even manner until the braking system starts to pulse and vibrates the brake peddle. This is how anti lock brakes tell you you are getting the most available braking from them.Keep enough pressure or force on the peddle until the vehicle comes to a stop.
The abs light being on for a 2000 Cavalier indicates a brake problem. The brakes could lock up when the pedal is pushes hard, or pulse.
