Mazda 3 ABS Sensor monitors the rotation of the wheels and sends speed information to the control module so that the anti-lock braking system can adjust the brake pressure and prevent locking during heavy braking. The ABS Sensor is mounted adjacent to a toothed ring. This ring could either be the wheel hub axle shaft or the differential gear. As a tooth passes its tip, the ABS Sensor gives out a rising and falling voltage. The module compares signals from every wheel, and when one slows much faster, it momentarily lowers hydraulic pressure to that brake, allowing traction to recover. There are two methods of operation. A type of combination consists of a magnet as well as a Hall effect element that detects the fluctuation in magnetic flux due to the ring's spin. One mechanism employs a toothed wheel complemented by an electromagnetic coil, which generates a voltage that varies in magnitude and direction. Generally, both ABS Sensors transmit an electrical pulse stream from rotation. However, at very low speeds, when magnetic fluctuations become weaker, the accuracy can decrease. The sensor on Mazda 3 models will trigger the system warning light if a fault is detected. In that condition, normal hydraulic braking usually remains, but the anti-lock system feature is disabled until the problem clears. This design concealment assists in achieving Mazda safety goals by helping to maintain stability on a wide variety of surfaces. If the module detects one wheel of a Mazda 3 slowing down more than others, it immediately applies the brakes more strongly on all the other wheels through the hydraulic unit.
