ABS EQUIPPED VEHICLE PERFORMANCE
Anti-Lock Brakes provide the driver with some
steering control during hard braking. However there
are conditions where the system does not provide any
benefit. In particular, hydroplaning is still possible
when the tires ride on a film of water. Hydroplaning
results in the vehicle tires leaving the road surface
rendering the vehicle almost uncontrollable. In addi-
tion, extreme steering maneuvers at high speed or
high speed cornering beyond limits of tire adhesion
to the road surface may cause vehicle skidding. So,
the ABS system is termed Anti-Lock instead of Anti-
Skid. One of the significant benefits of the ABS system is
that of maintaining steering control during hard
braking or during braking on slippery surfaces. It is
therefore possible to steer the vehicle while braking
on almost any road surface.
ABS SYSTEM SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
The ABS system has been designed with Self Diag-
nostic Capability. There are two self checks the sys-
tems performs every time the vehicle is started.
First, when the key is turned on the system performs
an electrical check called Start-Up Cycle. During this
check, the Red Brake Warning Lamp and the Amber
Anti-Lock Warning Lamp are illuminated. Then
turned off at the end of the test, after about 1 to 2
seconds. When the vehicle reaches a speed of about 3
to 4 miles per hour. The system performs a func-
tional check called Drive-Off. During Drive-Off. hy-
draulic valves are activated briefly to test their
function. Drive-Off can be detected as a series of
rapid clicks upon driving off the first time the car is
started. If the brake pedal is applied during Drive-
Off, the test is by-passed. Both of these conditions
are a normal part of the system self test. Most fault
conditions will set a ABS Fault Code in the (CAB),
which can be retrieved to aid in fault diagnosis. De-
tails can be found in Diagnosis Section.
ABS WARNING SYSTEMS OPERATION
The ABS system uses two methods for notifying
the driver of a system malfunction. These include the
standard Red Brake Warning Lamp and an Amber
Anti-Lock Warning Lamp, both located in the instru-
ment cluster. The purpose of these two lamps are dis-
cussed in detail below.
RED BRAKE WARNING LAMP
The Red Brake Warning Lamp, located in the in-
strument cluster, will Turn On to warn the driver of
brake system conditions that may result in reduced
braking ability. The lamp is also turned on when the
parking brake is not fully released. Conditions which
may cause the Red Brake Warning Lamp to Turn On
include: ²
Parking brake not fully released. If the parking
brake is applied or not fully released. The switch on the
parking brake pedal assembly will ground the Red
Brake Warning Lamp circuit and cause the lamp to
turn on. On vehicles equipped with mechanical instru-
ment clusters, the Amber Anti-Lock Lamp will turn on
if the vehicle is driven above 3 miles per hour with the
Parking Brake applied.
² Low brake fluid. The fluid level sensor in the hy-
draulic assembly reservoir will ground the Red Brake
Warning Lamp circuit if low brake fluid level is de-
tected. In addition, ABS will be deactivated above 3
miles per hour and the Amber Anti-Lock Warning
Lamp will be illuminated. If the vehicle is equipped
with EVIC, a low fluid condition will also cause the
Low Brake Fluid message to appear.
² Low Accumulator Pressure. In the event of low
accumulator pressure, the dual function pressure
switch in the hydraulic assembly will signal the (CAB)
to ground the Red Brake Warning Lamp circuit. This
will cause the Red Brake Warning Lamp to turn on.
Low accumulator pressure also results in the activa-
tion of the Yellow Anti-Lock Warning Lamp. Low accu-
mulator pressure may result in loss of power assist.
² Modulator Or (CAB) Faults. The modulator assem-
bly or (CAB) may turn on the Yellow Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp, if certain faults are detected in either the
modulator assembly or the (CAB).
² Bulb check. As a bulb check, the Red Brake Warning
Lamp will illuminate whenever the ignition switch is
placed in the crank position. Illumination of the red Brake Warning Lamp
may indicate reduced braking ability. A vehicle
that has the Red Brake Warning Lamp ON should
not be driven except to do diagnostic procedures
described in Section 2 of this manual. Most con-
ditions that turn on the Red Brake Warning
Lamp will also turn on the Amber Anti-Lock
Warning Lamp, consequently disabling the Anti-
Lock function.
ANTI-LOCK WARNING LAMP
The Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is located in the in-
strument cluster and is Amber in color. The Amber
Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is illuminated when the
(CAB) detects a condition that results in a shutdown of
Anti-Lock function. The Amber Anti-Lock Warning
Lamp is normally on until the (CAB) completes its self
tests and turns the lamp off. For example, if the (CAB)
is disconnected, the lamp is on. Display of the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp
without the Red Brake Warning Lamp indicates
only that Anti-Lock function has been disabled.
Power assisted normal braking is unaffected.

PUMP/MOTOR ASSEMBLY
NOTE: The (CAB) does not control the opera-
tion of the pump/motor assembly. The Pump/Motor Assembly is mounted to the tran-
saxle below the hydraulic assembly,(Fig. 3). Integral to
the Pump/Motor Assembly is an accumulator using a
sliding piston configuration with a nitrogen pre-charge
of 3,172 kPa (460 psi.) The Pump/Motor is an electri-
cally driven pump that takes low pressure brake fluid
from the hydraulic assembly fluid reservoir and pres-
surizes it. The pressurized fluid is then stored in the
piston accumulator and hydraulic bladder accumulator
for power assist and Anti-Lock Braking. Operation of
the Pump/Motor is controlled by the Dual Function
Pressure Switch through the Pump/Motor Relay. The
(CAB) does NOT control the Pump/Motor activa-
tion. Rubber isolators are used to mount the pump to
its bracket for noise isolation. The Pump/Motor Assem-
bly is connected to the Hydraulic Assembly with a low
pressure return hose and a high pressure hose. A filter
is located in the low pressure return line.
WHEEL SPEED SENSORS
One Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS), is located at each
wheel (Fig. 4, 5 and 6) and sends a small (AC) electrical
signal to the control module (CAB). This signal is
generated by magnetic induction. The magnetic induc-
tion is created when a toothed sensor ring (Tone Wheel)
passes by the stationary magnetic (Wheel Speed Sen-
sor). The (CAB) converts the (AC) electrical signal
generated at each wheel into a digital signal. If a wheel
locking tendency is detected, the (CAB) will then
modulate hydraulic pressure to prevent the wheel(s)
from locking. The front Wheel Speed Sensor (Fig. 4) is mounted to
a boss on the steering knuckle, for both the Front Wheel Drive and All Wheel Drive applications. The
Tone Wheel is part of the outboard constant velocity
joint housing. The Rear Wheel Speed Sensor, is mounted to the
caliper mounting adapter (Fig. 5). The rear Tone
Wheel is an integral part of the rear disc brake rotor
hub (Fig. 6). The speed sensor, to tone wheel air gap on all ap-
plications is NOT adjustable. All 4 of the vehicles, Wheel Speed Sensors are ser-
viced individually as replaceable components. The Front Wheel Drive front Tone Wheels are ser-
viced as an assembly with the front outboard con-

Ä ANTI-LOCK 10 BRAKE SYSTEM 5 - 79

The primary functions of the (CAB) are:
² (1) Detect wheel locking tendencies.
² (2) Control fluid modulation to the brakes while in
Anti-Lock mode.
² (3) Monitor the system for proper operation.
² (4) Provide communication to the DRB II while in
diagnostic mode. The (CAB) continuously monitors the speed of each
wheel, through the signals generated at the Wheel
Speed Sensors, to determine if any wheel is begin-
ning to lock. When a wheel locking tendency is de-
tected, the (CAB) will isolate the master cylinder
from the wheel brakes. This is done by activating the
Isolation Valves. The (CAB) then commands the ap-
propriate Build or Decay valves to modulate brake
fluid pressure in some or all of the hydraulic circuits.
The fluid used for modulation comes from the booster
servo circuit. The (CAB) continues to control pres-
sure in individual hydraulic circuits until a locking
tendency is no longer present. The (ABS) system is constantly monitored by the
(CAB) for proper operation. If the (CAB) detects a
fault, it can disable the Anti-Lock braking function.
Depending on the fault, the (CAB) will light one or
both of the brake warning lamps. The (CAB) contains a System Diagnostic Program
which triggers the brake system warning lamps
when a system fault is detected. Faults are stored in
a diagnostic program memory. There are 19 fault
codes that may be stored in the (CAB) and displayed
through the DRB II. These fault codes will remain in
the (CAB) memory even after the ignition has been
turned off. These fault codes will remain in memory
until they are cleared with the DRB II, or automati-
cally erased from the memory after (50) ignition
switch on/off cycles.

ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM RELAYS AND WARNING
LAMPS
PUMP/MOTOR RELAY
Pump/Motor power is supplied by the Pump/Motor
Relay. The Pump/Motor relay is located inside the
Power Distribution Center (PDC). The relay coil is
energized by a ground from the Dual Function Pres-
sure Switch. See (Fig. 9) for the location of the pump/
motor relay in the (PDC).
SYSTEM RELAY
The (ABS) Modulator Valves and Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp Relay are controlled through a System Re-
lay. The System relay is located on the top left inner
fender behind the headlight (Fig. 10). The system re-
lay provides power to the (CAB) for modulator valve
operation (pins 47 and 50) after the start-up cycle
when the ignition is turned on.

ANTILOCK BRAKES OPERATION AND
PERFORMANCE
The Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System represents
the current state-of-the-art in vehicle brake systems
and offers the driver increased safety and control
during braking. This is accomplished by a sophisti-
cated system of electrical and hydraulic components.
As a result, there are a few performance characteris-
tics that may at first seem different but should be
considered normal. These characteristics are dis-
cussed below. More technical details are discussed
further in this section.
PEDAL FEEL
Since the Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System uses the
vehicle's conventional brake system power booster
and master cylinder. The brake pedal feel during
normal braking is the same as on a conventional
Non ABS equipped vehicle. When the Antilock system becomes activated dur-
ing hard braking due to a wheel lockup tendency.
The brake pedal effort will increase do to the master
cylinder pressure being isolated from the brake sys-
tem. Some brake pedal movement and associated
noises may be felt and heard by the driver. This is
normal operation of the Bendix Antilock 4 Brake
System due to pressurized brake fluid being trans-
ferred to and from the wheel brakes.
ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM OPERATION
During Antilock Brake system operation, brake
pressures are modulated by cycling electric solenoid
valves. The cycling of these valves can be heard as a
series of popping or ticking noises. In addition, the
cycling may be felt as a pulsation in the brake pedal.
If Antilock operation occurs during a hard applica-
tion of the brakes, some pulsation may be felt in the
vehicle body due to fore and aft movement of vehicle
suspension components. Although ABS operation is available at virtually
all vehicle speeds, it will automatically turn off at
speeds below 3 to 5 mph. Wheel lockup may be per-
ceived at the very end of an anti lock stop and is con-
sidered normal.
TIRE NOISE & MARKS
Although the ABS system prevents complete wheel
lock-up, some wheel slip is desired in order to
achieve optimum vehicle braking performance. During brake fluid pressure modulation, as the
brake fluid pressure is increased, wheel slip is al-
lowed to reach up to 30%. This means that wheel
rolling speed is 30% less than that of a free rolling
wheel at a given vehicle speed. This slip may result
in some tire chirping, depending on the road surface.
This sound should not be interpreted as total wheel
lock-up. Complete wheel lock up normally leaves black tire
marks on dry pavement. The Antilock Brake System
will not leave dark black tire marks since the wheel
never reaches a locked condition. Tire marks may
however be noticeable as light patched marks.
VEHICLE PERFORMANCE
Antilock Brakes provide the driver with some
steering control during hard braking, however there
are conditions where the system does not provide any
benefit. In particular, hydroplaning is still possible
when the tires ride on a film of water. This results in
the vehicles tires leaving the road surface rendering
the vehicle virtually uncontrollable. In addition, ex-
treme steering maneuvers at high speed or high
speed cornering beyond the limits of tire adhesion to
the road surface may cause vehicle skidding, inde-
pendent of vehicle braking. For this reason, the ABS
system is termed Antilock instead of Anti-Skid.
SYSTEM SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
The Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System has been de-
signed with the following self diagnostic capabilities. The self diagnostic ABS startup cycle begins when
the ignition switch is turned to the on position. At
this time an electrical check is completed on the ABS
components such as Wheel Speed Sensor Continuity
and System and other Relay continuity. During this
check the Amber Antilock Light is on for approxi-
mately 1-2 seconds. Further Antilock Brake System functional testing
is accomplished once the vehicle is set in motion,
known as drive-off. (1) The solenoid valves and the pump/motor are ac-
tivated briefly to verify function.
Fig. 5 Controller Antilock Brake CAB
Ä ANTILOCK 4 BRAKE SYSTEM 5 - 15

WHEEL SPEED SENSORS
One Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS), is located at each
wheel (Fig. 5 and 6), and sends a small AC signal to the
control module CAB. This signal is generated by mag-
netic induction. The magnetic induction is created,
when a toothed sensor ring (Tone Wheel) (Fig. 7) passes
a stationary magnetic Wheel Speed Sensor. The CAB
converts the AC signal generated at each wheel into a
digital signal. If a wheel locking tendency is detected,
the CAB will then modulate hydraulic pressure to pre-
vent the wheel or wheels from locking.
The front Wheel Speed Sensor is attached to a boss
in the steering knuckle (Fig. 5). The tone wheel is
part of the outboard constant velocity joint (Fig. 5). The rear Wheel Speed Sensor is mounted to the cal-
iper adapter (Fig. 6) and the rear tone wheel is an
integral part of the rear wheel hub (Fig. 7). The
speed sensor air gap is NOT adjustable.
The four Wheel Speed Sensors are serviced individ-
ually. The front Tone Wheels are serviced as an as-
sembly with the outboard constant velocity joint. The
rear Tone Wheels are serviced as an assembly with
the rear brake hub. Correct Antilock system operation is dependent on
the vehicle's wheel speed signals, that are generated
by the Wheel Speed Sensors. The vehicle's wheels
and tires must all be the same size and type to gen-
erate accurate signals. In addition, the tires must be
inflated to the recommended pressures for optimum
system operation. Variations in wheel and tire size
or significant variations in inflation pressure can
produce inaccurate wheel speed signals.
CONTROLLER ANTILOCK BRAKE CAB
The Antilock Brake Controller is a small micropro-
cessor based device which monitors the brake system
and controls the system while it functions in the An-
tilock mode. The CAB is mounted on the top of the
right front frame rail and uses a 60-way system con-
nector (Fig. 8). The power source for the CAB is
through the ignition switch in the Run or On posi-
tion. THE CONTROLLER ANTILOCK BRAKE
CAB IS NOT ON THE CCD BUS The primary functions of the CAB are:
(1) Detect wheel locking tendencies.
(2) Control fluid modulation to the brakes while in
Antilock mode. (3) Monitor the system for proper operation.

(4) Provide communication to the DRB II while in
the Antilock brakes diagnostic mode. The CAB continuously monitors the speed of each
wheel, through the signals generated at the Wheel
Speed Sensors. This is used to determine if any
wheel of the vehicle is beginning to lock-up (skid)
when the brakes are applied. When a wheel locking
tendency is detected during brake apply. The CAB
commands the appropriate Build/Decay valves to
modulate brake fluid pressure in some or all of the
hydraulic circuits. The CAB continues to control
pressure in individual hydraulic circuits until a lock-
ing tendency is no longer present. The ABS system is constantly monitored by the
CAB for proper operation. If the CAB detects a fault,
it will turn on the Amber Antilock Warning Lamp
and disable the ABS brake system. The normal Non
ABS brake system will remain operational. The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program which
will turn on the Amber Antilock Warning Lamp
when a system fault is detected. Faults are stored in
a diagnostic program memory. There are 16 fault
codes which may be stored in the CAB and displayed
through the DRB II. These fault codes will remain in
the CAB memory even after the ignition has been
turned off. The fault codes can be cleared by using
the DRB II diagnostics tester, or they will be auto-
matically cleared from the memory after (50) ignition
switch on/off cycles.

off, there should be continuity in the system. Start
the engine. With the engine running, the ohmmeter
should show no continuity. If the above results are
not obtained, replace the switch.
BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LAMP
The brake warning lamp illuminates when parking
brake is applied with ignition key turned ON. The
same lamp will also illuminate should one of the two
service brake systems fail when brake pedal is ap-
plied. To test system turn ignition key ON, and ap-
ply parking brake. If lamp fails to light, inspect for a
burned out lamp, disconnected socket, a broken or
disconnected wire at switch. The lamp also lights
when the ignition switch is turned to START. To test service brake warning system, raise vehicle
on a hoist and open a wheel cylinder bleeder while a
helper depresses brake pedal and observes warning
light. If lamp fails to light, inspect for a burned out
lamp, disconnected socket, a broken or disconnected
wire at switch. If lamp is not burned out and wire continuity is
proven, replace brake warning switch in brake line
Tee fitting mounted on frame rail in engine compart-
ment below master cylinder (Fig.6 and 7). CAUTION: If wheel cylinder bleeder was opened
check master cylinder fluid level.
