What this light means

If the ABS warning light stays on, anti-lock braking does not work while the parking brake system may still operate. If ABS and braking-system warnings are on together, braking stability can be seriously affected.

Immediate actions

  1. 1Avoid hard braking and slippery-road speed.
  2. 2If ABS and braking/parking-system warnings are on together, stop in a safe place.
  3. 3Contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.

What to check

Record exact icon/message, driving or charging state and recent conditions
Follow the owner handbook escalation for the warning severity
Do not repair HV, brake, steering, airbag, ADAS, fuel or wiring systems yourself
