PARKING BRAKE
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The parking brake system is operated by a foot
operated parking brake lever. The parking brake
lever is mounted on the body of the vehicle to the left
of the brake pedal (Fig. 94). It is a automatic-adjust-
ing type lever.
Vehicles without Fold-in-floor seating have four
flexible steel parking brake cables. They are:
²Front
²Intermediate
²Left rear
²Right rear

Vehicles with Fold-in-floor seating have three flex-
ible steel parking brake cables. They are:
²Front
²Left rear
²Right rear
The front parking brake cable extends from the
parking brake lever. A steel equalizer bracket con-
nects the front parking brake cable to the left rear
and intermediate cables on vehicles without Fold-in-
floor seating. The equalizer bracket connects the
front parking brake cable to the left rear and right
rear cables on vehicles with Fold-in-floor seating. The
intermediate cable is connected to the right rear
cable on vehicles without Fold-in-floor seating. A
standard cable connector is used to accomplish this
connection.
On vehicles equipped with rear drum brakes, the
rear service brakes also act as the vehicle's parking
brakes.
Vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes use a
small duo-servo brake assembly mounted to the each
rear disc brake caliper adapter as the parking brake.
The inside of the brake rotor (hat section of drum-in-
hat style brake rotor) is used as the parking brake
drum.
DESCRIPTION - EXPORT
The parking brake system on this vehicle features
a hand-operated parking brake lever. The lever is
located between the two front seats and requires a
special front cable.
OPERATION
The automatic-adjusting feature in the foot oper-
ated parking brake lever continuously applies mini-
mal tension to the parking brake cables when the
parking brake lever is in the released position to
keep them in adjustment at all times. Due to this
feature, the parking brake cables require no periodic
adjustment.
When the parking brake lever is applied, the
cables are pulled, thus applying the brake shoes
(rear drum brakes) or parking brake shoes (rear disc
brakes) at each rear wheel.
The brake shoes are mechanically operated by an
internal lever and strut connected to the rear park-
ing brake cables.
An equalizer bracket is used at the rear end of the
front parking brake cable to distribute tension
equally to each parking brake cable.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - PARKING BRAKE
AUTOMATIC ADJUSTER TENSION RELEASE
The parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism used
in this vehicle is designed so that the automatic
adjuster is not required to be locked out when servic-
ing the parking brake lever (pedal) or the parking
brake cables.
This parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism is
designed so that the adjuster mechanism will rotate
only half a turn when the tension is released from
the parking brake cable. This eliminates the require-
ment to lock out the automatic adjuster when servic-
ing the parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism and
cables.
Use the following procedure to release the tension
from the parking brake cables and the automatic
adjuster in the parking brake lever (pedal) mecha-
nism.
(1) Release the parking brake.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle. (Refer to
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/HOISTING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE)
(3) If equipped with Fold-in-floor seating, perform
the following:
(a) Clamp an appropriate pair of locking pliers
on the front parking brake cable strand approxi-
mately 25 mm (1 inch) forward of the button at the
equalizer (Fig. 95).

PARKING BRAKE (Continued)

the park brake in this position, install a pair of lock-
ing pliers on the front parking brake cable just rear-
ward of the second body outrigger bracket (Fig. 97).
(2) Install the equalizer on the front parking brake
cable.
(3) Install the left rear and intermediate park
brake cable in the correct location on the parking
brake cable equalizer (Fig. 98).
(4) Remove the locking pliers from the front park-
ing brake cable. This will allow the adjuster in the
park brake lever (pedal) mechanism to tension the
park brake cables.
(5) Apply and release the parking brake lever
(pedal) one time. This will seat the parking brake
cables and allow the auto adjuster in the parking
brake lever (pedal) mechanism to correctly tension
the parking brake cables.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CABLE END
CLEANING AND LUBRICATION
Periodic cleaning and lubrication can be done to
ensure proper operation of the parking brake cables.This procedure applies to the trailing end of all park-
ing brake cables.
CAUTION: If a liquid cleaner is necessary, use a
cleaner such as MoparTNon-Chlorinated Brake
Parts Cleaner or equivalent.
(1) Using an appropriate bristle brush, clean the
cable strand in the area that retracts into the cable
housing when the parking brake lever is applied (Fig.
99).
(2) Clean the cable seal area at the end of the
cable housing (Fig. 99).
(3) Lubricate the cleaned area with a general pur-
pose grease lubricant.
ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT - PARKING BRAKE CABLES
The park brake cables on this vehicle have an
automatic self adjuster built into the park brake
pedal mechanism. When the foot operated park brake
pedal is in its released (upward most) position, a
clock spring automatically adjusts the park brake
cables. The park brake cables are adjusted (ten-
sioned) just enough to remove all the slack from the
cables. The automatic adjuster system will not over
adjust the cables causing rear brake drag.
Due to the automatic adjust feature of the park
brake pedal, adjustment of the parking brake cables
on these vehicles relies on proper drum brake and
park brake shoe adjustment. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/
HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/DRUM - ADJUST-
MENTS) and (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/PARKING
BRAKE/SHOES - ADJUSTMENTS).
When the park brake pedal is applied the self
adjuster is by-passed and the pedal operates nor-
mally to engage the park brakes.
When a service procedure needs to be performed on
the park brake pedal or the park brake cables, the
automatic self adjuster can be manually locked out
by the service technician.

DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
This section covers the physical and operational
descriptions and the on-car service procedures for the
Mark 20e Antilock Brake System and the Mark 20e
Antilock Brake System with traction control.
The purpose of the antilock brake system (ABS) is
to prevent wheel lockup under braking conditions on
virtually any type of road surface. Antilock braking is
desirable because a vehicle that is stopped without
locking the wheels retains directional stability and
some steering capability. This allows the driver to
retain greater control of the vehicle during braking.
DESCRIPTION - ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
(EXPORT)
Four-wheel disc antilock brakes are standard on all
models. The Mark 20e antilock brake system is used
on all models. Depending on whether the vehicle is a
left-hand drive (LHD) or right-hand drive (RHD)
model, the integrated control unit (ICU) is located in
one of two locations. On LHD models, the ICU is
mounted above the front suspension cradle/cross-
member below the master cylinder. On RHD models,
the ICU is located behind the front suspension cra-
dle/crossmember on the left side of the vehicle.
RSBRAKES - ABS5-87

DESCRIPTION - ELECTRONIC VARIABLE
BRAKE PROPORTIONING
Vehicles equipped with ABS use electronic variable
brake proportioning (EVBP) to balance front-to-rear
braking. The EVBP is used in place of a rear propor-
tioning valve. The EVBP system uses the ABS system
to control the slip of the rear wheels in partial brak-
ing range. The braking force of the rear wheels is con-
trolled electronically by using the inlet and outlet
valves located in the integrated control unit (ICU).
EVBP activation is invisible to the customer since
there is no pump motor noise or brake pedal feedback.
DESCRIPTION - TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
Traction control reduces wheel slip and maintains
traction at the driving wheels at speeds below 56
km/h (35 mph) when road surfaces are slippery. The
traction control system reduces wheel slip by braking
the wheel that is losing traction.
HYDRAULIC SHUTTLE VALVES
Two pressure relief hydraulic shuttle valves are
included on vehicles with traction control. These
valves are located inside the HCU and cannot be ser-
viced separately from the HCU.
TRACTION CONTROL LAMP
The traction control function lamp is located in the
transmission range indicator display of the instru-
ment cluster, displaying TRAC, TRAC OFF or nei-
ther depending on system mode.
The TRAC OFF lamp is controlled by a Traction
Control Off switch that is a momentary contact type
switch. The Traction Control Off switch is located on
the steering column upper shroud.
OPERATION
OPERATION - ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
There are a few performance characteristics of the
Mark 20e Antilock Brake System that may at first
seem abnormal, but in fact are normal. These char-
acteristics are described below.
NORMAL BRAKING
Under normal braking conditions, the ABS func-
tions the same as a standard base brake system with
a diagonally split master cylinder and conventional
vacuum assist.
ABS BRAKING
ABS operation is available at all vehicle speeds above
3±5 mph. If a wheel locking tendency is detected during
a brake application, the brake system enters the ABS
mode. During ABS braking, hydraulic pressure in thefour wheel circuits is modulated to prevent any wheel
from locking. Each wheel circuit is designed with a set of
electric solenoids to allow modulation, although for vehi-
cle stability, both rear wheel solenoids receive the same
electrical signal. Wheel lockup may be perceived at the
very end of an ABS stop and is considered normal.
During an ABS stop, the brakes hydraulic system
is still diagonally split. However, the brake system
pressure is further split into three control channels.
During antilock operation of the vehicle's brake sys-
tem, the front wheels are controlled independently
and are on two separate control channels, and the
rear wheels of the vehicle are controlled together.
The system can build and release pressure at each
wheel, depending on signals generated by the wheel
speed sensors (WSS) at each wheel and received at
the controller antilock brake (CAB).
NOISE AND BRAKE PEDAL FEEL
During ABS braking, some brake pedal movement
may be felt. In addition, ABS braking will create
ticking, popping, or groaning noises heard by the
driver. This is normal and is due to pressurized fluid
being transferred between the master cylinder and
the brakes. If ABS operation occurs during hard
braking, some pulsation may be felt in the vehicle
body due to fore and aft movement of the suspension
as brake pressures are modulated.
At the end of an ABS stop, ABS is turned off when
the vehicle is slowed to a speed of 3±4 mph. There may
be a slight brake pedal drop anytime that the ABS is
deactivated, such as at the end of the stop when the
vehicle speed is less than 3 mph or during an ABS stop
where ABS is no longer required. These conditions exist
when a vehicle is being stopped on a road surface with
patches of ice, loose gravel, or sand on it. Also, stopping
a vehicle on a bumpy road surface activates ABS
because of the wheel hop caused by the bumps.
TIRE NOISE AND MARKS
Although the ABS system prevents complete wheel
lockup, some wheel slip is desired in order to achieve
optimum braking performance. Wheel slip is defined
as follows: 0 percent slip means the wheel is rolling
freely and 100 percent slip means the wheel is fully
locked. During brake pressure modulation, wheel slip
is allowed to reach up to 25±30 percent. This means
that the wheel rolling velocity is 25±30 percent 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 lockup.
Complete wheel lockup normally leaves black tire
marks on dry pavement. The ABS will not leave dark
black tire marks since the wheel never reaches a
fully locked condition. However, tire marks may be
noticeable as light patched marks.

BRAKES - ABS (Continued)

START-UP CYCLE
When the ignition is turned on, a popping sound
and a slight brake pedal movement may be noticed.
The ABS warning lamp will also be on for up to 5
seconds after the ignition is turned on. When the
vehicle is first driven off, a humming may be heard
or felt by the driver at approximately 20±40 kph
(12±25 mph). All of these conditions are a normal
function of ABS as the system is performing a diag-
nosis check.
PREMATURE ABS CYCLING
Symptoms of premature ABS cycling include: click-
ing sounds from the solenoid valves; pump/motor
running; and pulsations in the brake pedal. Prema-
ture ABS cycling can occur at any braking rate of the
vehicle and on any type of road surface. Neither the
red BRAKE warning lamp, nor the amber ABS warn-
ing lamp, illuminate and no fault codes are stored in
the CAB.
Premature ABS cycling is a condition that needs to
be correctly assessed when diagnosing problems with
the antilock brake system. It may be necessary to use
a DRB scan tool to detect and verify premature ABS
cycling.
Check the following common causes when diagnos-
ing premature ABS cycling: damaged tone wheels;
incorrect tone wheels; damaged steering knuckle
wheel speed sensor mounting bosses; loose wheel
speed sensor mounting bolts; excessive tone wheel
runout; or an excessively large tone wheel-to-wheel
speed sensor air gap. Give special attention to these
components when diagnosing a vehicle exhibiting
premature ABS cycling.
After diagnosing the defective component, repair or
replace it as required. When the component repair or
replacement is completed, test drive the vehicle to
verify that premature ABS cycling has been cor-
rected.
OPERATION - ELECTRONIC VARIABLE BRAKE
PROPORTIONING
Upon entry into EVBP the inlet valve for the rear
brake circuit is switched on so that the fluid supply
from the master cylinder is shut off. In order to
decrease the rear brake pressure, the outlet valve for
the rear brake circuit is pulsed. This allows fluid to
enter the low pressure accumulator (LPA) in the
hydraulic control unit (HCU) resulting in a drop in
fluid pressure to the rear brakes. In order to increase
the rear brake pressure, the outlet valve is switched
off and the inlet valve is pulsed. This increases the
pressure to the rear brakes. This back-and-forth pro-
cess will continue until the required slip difference is
obtained. At the end of EVBP braking (brakes
released) the fluid in the LPA drains back to themaster cylinder by switching on the outlet valve and
draining through the inlet valve check valve. At the
same time the inlet valve is switched on in case of
another brake application.
The EVBP will remain functional during many
ABS fault modes. If both the red BRAKE and amber
ABS warning indicators are illuminated, the EVBP
may not be functioning.
OPERATION - TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
The traction control module monitors wheel speed.
During acceleration, if the module detects front
(drive) wheel slip and the brakes are not applied, the
module enters traction control mode. Traction control
operation proceeds in the following order:
(1) Close the normally open isolation valves.
(2) Start the pump/motor and supply volume and
pressure to the front (drive) hydraulic circuit. (The
pump/motor runs continuously during traction con-
trol operation.)
(3) Open and close the build and decay valves to
maintain minimum wheel slip and maximum trac-
tion.
The cycling of the build and decay valves during
traction control is similar to that during antilock
braking, except the valves work to control wheel spin
by applying the brakes, whereas the ABS function is
to control wheel skid by releasing the brakes.
If the brakes are applied at anytime during a trac-
tion control cycle, the brake lamp switch triggers the
controller to switch off traction control.
HYDRAULIC SHUTTLE VALVES
Two pressure relief hydraulic shuttle valves allow
pressure and volume to return to the master cylinder
reservoir when not consumed by the build and decay
valves. These valves are necessary because the
pump/motor supplies more volume than the system
requires.
TRACTION CONTROL LAMP
The traction control system is enabled at each igni-
tion cycle. It may be turned off by depressing the
Traction Control Off switch button when the ignition
is in the ON position. The traction control function
lamp (TRAC OFF) illuminates immediately upon
depressing the button.
The traction control function lamp illuminates dur-
ing a traction control cycle, displaying TRAC.
If the CAB calculates that the brake temperatures
are high, the traction control system becomes inoper-
ative until a time-out period has elapsed. During this
ªthermo-protection mode,º the traction control func-
tion lamp illuminates TRAC OFF; note that no trou-
ble code is registered.

REMOVAL
(1) Raise vehicle. (Refer to LUBRICATION &
MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE)
CAUTION: When disconnecting speed sensor cable
from vehicle wiring harness be careful not to dam-
age pins on the electrical connectors. Also, inspect
connectors for any signs of previous damage.
(2) Remove grommet from floor pan of vehicle and
disconnect speed sensor cable connector from vehicle
wiring harness (Fig. 2).
CAUTION: When removing rear wheel speed sensor
cable from routing clips, be sure not to damage the
routing clips. Routing clips that are molded onto
the brake hose will require replacement of the brake
hose if damaged during removal or installation of
the speed sensor cable.
(3) Carefully remove speed sensor cable from
press-in routing clips (Fig. 3).
(4) Remove bolt securing metal routing clip to rear
of axle and remove sensor cable from metal clip (Fig.
3).
(5) Remove secondary (yellow) retaining clip at
rear of wheel speed sensor head (Fig. 4).
(6) Push up on metal retaining clip (Fig. 4) until it
bottoms. This will release wheel speed sensor head
from hub and bearing. While holding metal clip up,
pull back on wheel speed sensor head removing it
from hub and bearing.(7) Remove wheel speed sensor assembly from
vehicle.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Proper installation of wheel speed sen-
sor cable is critical to continued system operation.
Be sure that cable is installed in routing retainers/
clips. Failure to install cable in retainers may result
in contact with moving parts or over extension of
cable, resulting in an open circuit.
CAUTION: It is important that only MoparTWheel
Bearing Grease be used for the following step appli-
cation. Other lubricants may cause sensor failure.
