How does the ABS system work on an Audi 80?

I am having trouble understanding how the anti-lock brake system (ABS) functions on my Audi 80. Can someone explain it to me in simple terms?

The anti-lock brake system (ABS) uses sensors to detect when a wheel is about to lock up during braking and rapidly pumps the brakes to prevent skidding. This allows you to maintain control of the vehicle. My advice would be to read the owner's manual for more details on how the ABS specifically works for the Audi 80 model.
