ABS Check

Is there a way that I can tell if my car has ABS by looking at it?

A ABS light on your cluster would light up for a few seconds when you start the vehicle.

If no light, no ABS.

If no light, no ABS.
IF system is working and PCM runs test for ABS. otherwise, shine light at the angle on dashboard, so that you can see all those little hieroglifics, and see if one says ABS.
or, simply, write down your VIN, call dealer, and let them tell you.
unless you really want to take a wheel off and find out if there's a wire running into the hub.
