ABS not working, but no warning lights

by obliterator on Dec 05 2018, 9:33 AM

I was at my first PCA DE (Intro Driving School) last summer, and during the skid pad exercises it was clear that:
a) my brake modulation is exceptional  because 
b) my ABS wasn't functioning

I don't have any brake-related warning lights lit up on my instrument cluster. 

Any thoughts on what might be wrong or how to diagnose?

    To start off you need to hook up a scanner and check for any codes.  Also do a bulb check on the instrument cluster.  You can do this with a scan tool or you can check them when the key is first turned to the on position.  Also I would take the car in a parking lot or on a road with no traffic any speed up to 20 MPH and jam the brake pedal real hard and see if the ABS kicks in.  Maybe you just weren't braking hard enough.
