clear of the bulkhead.
11. Remove the brake booster from the enqine com-
panment.
12. Install the brake booster and master cylinder in the
reverse order of removal, and note these items:
. When connecting the brake lines, make sure that
there is no interference between the brake lines
and other parts.
. Be careful not to bend or damage the brake lines
when installing the master cylinder.
. lf replacing the master cylinder or brake booster,
check and adjust the pushrod clearance before
installing the master cylinder (see page 19-14).
Fill the master cylinder reservoir, and bleed the
brake system (see page 19-7).
After installation, check the brake pedal height and
brake pedal free play (see page 19-5), and adjust if
necessary.

Inspection/Torque Specif ications
1. Inspect the brake hoses for damage, deterioration, leaks, interference, and twisting
2. Check the brake Iines for damage, rusting, and leakage. Also check for bent brake lines.
3. Check for leaks at hose and line joints and connections, and retighten if necessary.
4. Checkthe master cylinder, proportioning control valve. and ABS modulator unit for damage and leakage.
NOTE: Replace the brake hose clip whenever the brake hose is serviced.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
Features/Construction
When the brake pedal is pressed during driving, the wheels can lock before the vehicle comes to a stop. In such an event,
the maneuverability of the vehicle is reduced if the front wheels are locked, and the stability of the vehicle is reduced if the
rear wheels are locked, creating an extremely unstable condition. The ABS precisely controls the slip rate of the wheels to
ensure maximum grip force from the tires, and it thereby ensures maneuverbility and stability of the vehicle.
The ABS calculates the slip rate of the wheels based on the vehicle speed and the wheel speed, then it controls the brake
fluid pressure to attain the target slip rate.

ABS Control
The ABS control unit detects the wheel speed based on the wheel sensor signal it received, then it calculates the vehicle
speed based on the detected wheel speed. The control unit detects the vehicle speed during deceleration based on the
rate of deceleration.
The ABS control unit calculates the slip rate of each wheel, and it transmits the control signal to the modulator unit
solenoid valve when the slip rate is high
The pressure reduction control has three modes: pressure reducing, pressure retaining, and pressure intensi{ying modes.
Self-diagnosis Function
The ABS control unit is equipped with a main cPU and a sub cPU, that check each other for problems.
The CPUs check the circuit of the system.
When the CPUS detect failure, they shift to the "system down mode" or the "control inhibition mode".
The self-diagnosis can be classitied into these four categories:
O: Initial diagnosis
O: Except ABS control
O; During ABS control
@: During warning
On-board Diagnosis Function
The ABS system can be diagnosed with the Honda PGM Tester.
The ALB Checker cannot be used with this system. For air bleeding. and checking wheel sensor signals, use the Honda
PGIM Tester. See the Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.

Features/Gonstruction (cont'd)
ABS Modulator
The ABS modulator consists of the inlet solenoid valve, outlet solenoid valve, reservoir, pump, pump motor and thedampjng chamber.
The modulator reduces the caliper fluid pressure directly. lt is a circulating-type modulator because the brake fluid circulatesthrough the caliper, reservoir and the master cylinder.The hydraulic control has three modes: pressure reduction, pressure retaining and pressure intensifying modes.The hydraulic circuit is the independent four channel-type, one channel for each wheel.
SOLENOID VALVE
t-
Pressure intensifying mode: Inlet valve open, outlet valve closed,
Pressure retaining mode:
Pressure reduction mode:
Motor operation mode:
Master cylinder fluid is pumped out to the caliper.Inlet valve closed, outlet valve closed.
Caliper fluid is retained by the inlet valve and outlet valve.Inlet valve closed, outlet valve ooen
Caliper fluid flows through the outlet valve to the reservoir.When starting the pressure reduction mode. the pump motor is ON.When stopping ABS operation, the pump motor is OFF.The reservoir fluid is pumped out by the pump, through the damping chamber, to the mastercylinder.
