Fail-Safe Relay: Description and Operation

FUNCTION

When an abnormality is detected in the ABS control system self-diagnosis, the solenoid operations are suspended by turning off the two fail-safe
relays. This disconnects the ground circuits of all the solenoid valves to prevent ABS operation.Under these conditions, the braking system
functions just as an ordinary one.

RELAY

The fail-safe relay's terminal side contact is normally open. When there is continuity at the relay coil, the fail-safe relay is closed, thereby
connecting the ground circuit to the solenoid valve.
