i'm no longer a pro in Mercury automobiles or ABS platforms. besides the indisputable fact that, at the same time as brakes squeal this is an illustration that on the spot interest needs to take delivery of them. per chance the pads are worn right down to the bare metal and now metal rubs metal. This ruins the disks if we are speaking about disk-brakes -- which seems likely the following. of route, when you're operating the brakes without pads - that in itself ought to change into risky. for this reason your fix ought to change into doubtlessly a lot extra intense priced. Please ask your Mercury representative now -- or a mechanic that you've self assurance for an opinion.

When the abs module detects a problem with one of the components of the abs system, it turns on the abs light and disables the asb system. You still have normal braking. Get it checked out soon.

A nti lock
B rakes
S ystem
sense the speed of every wheel upon brakeing .so, apply braking power evenly to all wheels
is very related but not the same as pads and rotors.
Hence...... the rotor and pads may be wear out and the ABS litgh won't come on untill one of the wheels don't stop at all.
Hence ...You may have brand new rotors and pads ,and one of the sensor is bad ,the ABS light will come on.
final comment.......when brakes related "situation" ,do not flip the coin,take it in.

When the ABS fails, the brakes revert to their normal non-ABS mode which is perfectly safe to drive with. One of your ABS wheel sensors is probably bad.

it's safe to drive, you have a bad wheel sensor for the ABS or a wire to one of the sensors has broken.
