How Does the Audi 80's Anti-Lock Braking System Work?

I recently purchased an Audi 80 and noticed that it has an anti-lock braking system (ABS). I've heard about ABS but I'm not sure how it actually works. Can someone explain the mechanics behind it?

The anti-lock braking system (ABS) on the Audi 80 uses sensors to detect when a wheel is about to lock up during braking. When this happens, it automatically reduces the brake pressure to prevent the wheel from locking, allowing the driver to maintain control. My advice is to familiarize yourself with how ABS feels when it activates so you are not caught off guard in an emergency situation.
