ABS warning light on on 500x: what to do?
Years 2014-2022

Answer

If the ABS warning light has come on on your 500x, don't worry, as the "normal" braking system will continue to work. However, try not to put yourself in risky braking conditions, since the anti-lock braking system does not work, and have your trusted mechanic check the control unit.
