How is the failure of the anti-block system (ABS) indicated?

Explanation

Correct answer: By a control light on the dashboard.

Vehicles equipped with an ABS system have a self-diagnostic system that continuously monitors its functionality. If a fault is detected, a dedicated, usually amber, warning light with the inscription 'ABS' illuminates on the dashboard. This is a clear signal to the driver that the anti-lock system is not working correctly and that special caution must be exercised when braking.
