Modulator Unit: Notes
The ABS modulator consists of inlet solenoid valves, outlet solenoid valves, reservoir, pump, and the pump motor. The modulator reduces the caliper fluid pressure directly. It is a circulating-type modulator because the brake fluid circulates through the caliper, reservoir, and the master cylinder. The hydraulic control has three modes: Normal braking, pressure retaining, and pressure reducing. The hydraulic circuit is an independent four channel type, one channel for each wheel.
