Crown Victoria V8-4.6L SOHC VIN 6 (1996)
Electronic Brake Control Module: Description and Operation
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) module is located in the engine compartment. This unit is a self-testing, non-repairable unit consisting of two
indentically programmed micro-processors. The ABS module monitors system operation during normal driving as well as during anti-lock braking.
Under normal driving conditions, the micro-processors transmit short test pulses to the solenoid valves to check the electrical system. Under wheel lock
conditions, the ABS module produces signals to open and close the appropriate solenoid valves. This results in moderate brake pedal pulsations. During
anti-lock braking, moderate pulsation in the brake pedal is accompanied by a change in pedal height. This rise in pedal height will continue until the
pedal travel switch closes and the pump shuts off. During normal braking, the brake pedal feel will be identical to a standard brake system.
