Electronic Control Unit (Ecu)

ECU computes the acceleration, deceleration and slip factors as generated from rotating wheels via the speed sensors. ECU program can determine correct response behavior of the system based on these computations. ECU response is sent by electronic signals to the electromagnetically operated valves in the ABS hydraulic unit.

The ECU contains electronic monitoring circuits. These monitoring circuits ensure proper operation of the ABS. If the control unit detects a defect in the wiring harness or any electrical part of the equipment, the monitoring circuit will switch off ABS, permitting normal use of standard brake system. ANTI-LOCK indicator light will glow.

ECU is located in the right rear corner of the engine compartment.
