General Description

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Antilock Brake System (ABS) has been designed to improve the controllability and steerability of a vehicle during braking that would cause at least one of the wheels to lock. ABS accomplishes this by controlling the hydraulic brake pressure applied to each front caliper and the rearwheel cylinders. Antilock braking occurs only when EBCM monitors wheel speeds and determines that at least one wheel is about to lose traction during braking. If required, EBCM will allow hydraulic modulator to change the brake pressures to provide the driver with maximum vehicle controllability.
ABS operation is available from approximately 5 km/h (3 mph) to the maximum vehicle speed.





NOTE: ABS installed to this model cannot increase brake pressure above master cylinder pressure applied by the driver and cannot apply the brake by itself.
