Electronic Brake Control Module: Description and Operation
CONTROL UNIT (BUILT-IN ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT)
The control unit computes the wheel rotating speed by the signal current sent from the sensor. Then it supplies a DC current to the actuator solenoid
valve. It also controls ON-OFF operation of the valve relay and motor relay. If any electrical malfunction should be detected in the system, the control
unit causes the warning lamp to light up. In this condition, the ABS will be deactivated by the control unit, and the vehicle brake system reverts to
normal operation.
