Default Do I have ABS?

I have no idea. I have an '01 R/T Coupe. The manual says "if so equipped" with ABS, that the "ANTILOCK" light will flash when I turn the car on, it doesn't. I have rear wheel disc brakes though, not sure if that means anything. In the inside fusebox there's a fuse for ABS, it's in there. In the fusebox under the hood there's nothing in the ABS socket.

I'm lost. I have tons of questions about this car.

if you have a fuse for the ABS then you should have it in your car because why would they put it there if its not going to be there. plus its an RT

That's why I'm confused!! I guess I'll have to wait for the snow to clear and I'll just test them.

i have an 01 R/T as well. i have abs. my car has 4 wheel disc brakes too. if its snowy out where you live, take it up to like 20 mph and then slam the brakes, if you feel a vibration in the brake pedal and here a wierd noise and you feel a gradual decrease in speed, you have abs. if you do that and dont feel or hear anything and just slide, then ya dont have abs. most likely you do have abs, i dont think they wouldnt have given it to you with the r/t. hope that helps

01 is pretty much on the mark. If you have snow one the ground and can drive, just find a nice safe spot to slide about. Floor the brake peddle, and ABS should be obvious as you will not loose control, but slow gradually. ABS in my Explorer was quite noisy when in operation, but I have no clue about the Strat. My 02 R/t does not have ABS, as it was an option, and not standard equipment.

Not all R/T's came with ABS, it was a option, and since you said you don't have all the fuses for it, I am going to say you more than likely don't have it.
