Parts List
The parking-brake hand lever is mounted on the transmission tunnel and incorporates the ratchet mechanism and release
button.
The front cable is routed from the hand lever, under the carpet through to an abutment bracket adjacent to the
transmission tunnel, and then connected to the relay lever. The relay lever is attached to a mounting plate by a center bolt
on which it rotates The relay lever mounting plate straddles the transmission tunnel, the plate is secured by four bolts. The
relay lever acts as a center pu ll system to transmit the force from the hand lever to the rear brakes shoes. The equalizer
which is positioned in the center of the rear brake cables balances the force that is applied to the rear brakes.
The rear brake cables are linked together: each cable passes through the rear hub carrier and connects to a brake shoe
expander lever. Application of the parking brake causes the rear cables to pu ll on the expander levers, the expander lever
mechanism rotates on a pivot pin to force the brake shoes outwards to contact the brake drums.
The parking brake cables are adjusted by the rotation of a nu t on the adjuster rod. The parking brake shoes are adjusted by

Hydraulic Brake Actuation
Description and Operation

The hydraulic brake system is split in to two independent circuits: the primary ci rcuit operates the front brakes and the
secondary circuit operates the re ar brakes. This type of system prevents comple te brake failure in the event of a brake tube
fracture.
The hydraulic brake system consists of the following components:

uid Level Warning-Lamp

The t
andem master cylinder contains two in
dependent pistons, fluid pressure to each brake circuit is controlled by its own
individual piston. Brake fluid is supplied to the master cylinder by the reservoir, which is divided into two sections to preve nt
total fluid loss should one of the circuits fail. A port situated at the bottom of each section of the reservoir supplies the f luid
to each piston.
The fluid reservoir has a fluid-le vel indicator switch installed, which operates when the fluid level is low, causing the brake
fluid level warning-lamp to illuminate.
Bra
ke Caliper
The brake
calipers are of the single piston
type. The caliper carrier, which is secured to the vertical link by two bolts, carr ies
the single-piston caliper housing. The cali per housing is secured to the caliper carrier by two guide-pins and an anti-rattle
spring. When the brakes are applied, the caliper-housing piston pushes the brake pad in front of it, to wards the brake disc.
This movement forces the calipe r housing to move along the guid e-pins, in the opposite direction of the piston, to apply the
second brake pad.
Br
embo Brake Caliper
The four
cylinder brake caliper is rigidly attached to the vert
ical link via an anchor bracket. The caliper is a split assembly
with each side of the caliper, housing two pistons. The two-pairs of opposed pistons act direct ly on the brake pads mounted
one each side of the disc.

The brake
control modulator comprises:
a A

BS/TCCM
a h

ydraulic control unit,
an electrically driven hydrau

lic pump,
two low pressure accumulato

rs and damping chambers.
ABS/TCCM


The AB
S/TCCM is integrated with the hydrau
lic control unit. It houses the solenoids that operate the hydraulic control unit's
input and return valves; the valve stems locate into the ABS/TCCM's solenoids. There is no electrical connection between
the ABS/TCCM and the hydraulic control unit.
The ABS/TCCM constantly monitors the brake electronic system by passing self-checking electrical pulses around the circuit.
The self check procedures carried-out by the ABS/TCCM are listed below:
1. 1. Monitoring of the operating voltage: the control mo dule will shut-down should the voltages not be
(approximately) in the range of 9 to 19V.
2. 2. The pump is monitored for volt age supply and voltage feedback.
3. 3. Monitoring for disturbance, where a failure may be caus ed by external radio frequency interference, internal
leakage current, defective valve transistor or a faulty valve.
4. 4. Internal controller failure, de tected by a RAM and ROM test.
5. 5. The controller area network (CAN) micr o-controller checks for correct operation of the communication network
and performs a RAM self-check.
CAUTION: Disconnection of ABS/TCCM connectors may introduce other fault codes. Following rectification and
reconnection, ensure that no induced codes exist.
5.
Signals processed by the ABS/TCCM are also sent to the CAN for vehicle use, such as the instrument cluster speed display,
cruise control and stability/traction control.
Hydraulic Control Unit

Control of
the fluid pressure to
the front and rear brakes is by means of the valves contained in the hydraulic control unit.
The valves are operated by solenoids housed in the ABS/TCCM.
Hydraulic Pump
The
hydraulic pump is integrated
with the hydraulic control unit.

ke Control Modulator

clos
ed outlet valves.
Traction Control
Trac

tion control has the same capabilities as ASC but with th
e added ability to actuate the brakes of the spinning wheel.
This enhances ASC by improving acceleration particularly on surfaces with uneven friction , e.g. one wheel on ice the other
on tarmac.
When wheelspin occurs, brake line pressure to the slipping wheel is generated, to operate that wheel's brake. The BCM
achieves this by closing the cut-off solenoid valve and oper ating the hydraulic pump. Brake fluid is then drawn from the
reservoir through the non-actuated mast er cylinder to the brake caliper.
A 'TRAC' amber warning light flashes on the instrument panel when the system detects a spinning wheel.
The traction control system uses a brake control modulator with nine solenoid valv es: four normally open inlet valves and
four normally closed outlet valves and one special isolating va lve. The outlet valves control the brakes of each each rear
wheel individually on the traction control system.
