Why does a Dodge Ram have rear ABS?

The truck was originally released in 1981 and continues to be sold today. In 1989 rear ABS, or anti-lock braking system, became standard on the truck. The ABS prevents the wheels of the truck from ceasing to rotate or “locking up” while the driver is braking. Locking up the wheels can cause a loss of control.

Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
