Traction Control: Anti-Lock: Description

The Bosch Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) increases vehicle steerability, directional stability and optimum deceleration in severe braking conditions on most road surfaces. The ABS monitors wheel speed and controls brake line pressure to eliminate uncontrolled skidding. This performance supplies the vehicle with maximum controllability.

The ABS consists of an Electronic Brake Control Unit (EBCU), modulator valve, lateral acceleration switch and wheel speed sensors. See Figure and Figure . ABS system utilizes a 3-way hydraulic circuit; one circuit for each front wheel and a common circuit for rear axle.
