What causes problems with ABS and ESP?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see what causes problems with ABS and ESP: it is a problem that occurs with the VSS sensors, which read the wheel rotation speed, even when the car is stopped. Until recently, the sensors worked by passing over a gear ring, but now everything goes through a control unit that manages various functions. The sensor contains a series of electronic microchips and is much more precise than mechanical sensors, reading even at low speeds, which the mechanical sensor could not do. Additionally, it also detects temperature signals to inform the control unit and make the necessary corrections. In some vehicles, it can also detect vibrations in extremely short detection times. The wiring of these sensors is extremely resistant to twisting, tearing, and heat.
