What does Locked Wheel protection provide?

What does Locked Wheel protection provide?

• A. Locks the faster wheel
• B. If a wheel speed is 33% or below its associated paired wheel speed, BCM commands zero pressure to the brake of the slower wheel
• C. Increases pressure to the slower wheel
• D. Disengages ABS

Answer: (B)

Locked Wheel protection continuously watches wheel speeds and uses that information to keep wheels turning rather than letting one lock up. It compares the speed of each wheel with its paired wheel on the same axle. When the slower wheel drops to 33% or less of the faster wheel’s speed, the system steps in and releases brake pressure to the slower wheel—sending zero pressure in this scenario—to prevent a lock and restore rotation. This keeps the vehicle controllable and helps maintain steering during heavy braking. Other options don’t fit because this feature does not lock or increase pressure on the faster or slower wheel, and it does not disengage ABS.
