Hydraulic Control Assembly - Antilock Brakes: Description and Operation
Pressure Regulating Valve, ABS
PURPOSE
The brake pressure control valve regulates the hydraulic pressure in the rear brake system.
OPERATION
When the brake pedal is applied, the full brake fluid pressure passes through the brake pressure control valve to the rear brake system until the
valve's split point is reached. Above its split point, the brake pressure control valve begins to reduce the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes,
creating a balanced braking condition between the front and rear wheels to minimize rear wheel lockup during hard braking.
CONSTRUCTION
The brake pressure control valve is an integral part of the brake master cylinder, located between the rear brake system's inlet and outlet ports in
the main valve.
