Maximum brake force ▶
FBmax = Vehicle Weight x Adhesion
coefficientmh
The braking process cannot be described
sufficiently accurately with the brake forces
calculated. The values calculated only apply
if the wheel is not locked. In the case of a
locking wheel, the static friction turns into
lower sliding friction, with the result that the
stopping distance is increased. This loss of
friction is termed “slip” in specialist
literature.
Slip ▶
The brake slip is the difference between the vehicle speed and the wheel circumference speed.
If the wheel locks, the slip is greatest, that is 100 %. If the wheel is running freely and unbraked,
the slip is the lowest, equal to 0 %. Slip can be calculated from the vehicle speed Vveh and the
wheel speed Vw. The equation for this is:
S = X 100 %
Vveh = 100 km/h, Vw = 70 km/h
S = X 100 %
The slip is 30 %.

Typical slip curves ▶
For the various carriageway conditions the
adhesion coefficients were plotted. The
typical course of the curves is always the
same. The only special feature is shown by
the curve for freshly fallen snow, for this
curve increases at 100 % slip. In a vehicle
without ABS, the wheel locks on braking and
therefore pushes a wedge before it. This
wedge of loose surface or freshly fallen
snow means and increased resistance and
as a result the stopping distance is shorter.
This reduction in stopping distance is not
possible with a vehicle with ABS, as the
wheel does not lock. On these surfaces the
stopping distance with ABS is longer than
without ABS. The reason for this is based in
physics and not in the Anti-Lock System.
However, as mentioned before, ABS is not
about the stopping distance, but
maneuverability and driving stability, for with
ABS you can steer round an obstacle.
A
device with locking wheels without ABS
cannot be steered. So what use then is the
shorter stopping distance if the vehicle has
already hit the car in front, because you did
not have a chance to steer round the
obstacle?

Brake force
When depressing the brake pedal the
brake force increases to the maximum,
then the brake force decreases until the
wheel locks.
Cornering force
The cornering force is a maximum when
the wheel is turning freely with zero slip.
When braking the cornering force falls to
zero if the wheel locks (slip 100 %).
ABS operating range
The operating range starts just before the
maximum brake force and ends in
maximum, for the unstable range then
begins, in which no further modulation is
possible. The ABS controls the regulation
of the brake pressure so that the brake
force only becomes great enough for a
sufficient proportion of cornering force to
remain. With ABS we remain in the
Kamm circle as long as the car is driving
sensibly. We will leave driving physics
with these statements and turn to the
braking systems with and without ABS. -

(3) Basic ABS Controls
Applications of the ABS control unit
The signals produced by the wheel sensors
are evaluated in the electronic control unit.
From the information received, the control
unit must first compute the following
variables:
- Wheel speed
- Reference speed
- Deceleration
- Slip
Reference speed ▶
The reference speed is the mean, I.e. average speed of all wheel speeds determined by simple
approximation.
Simplified ABS control ▶
If, during braking, one wheel speed deviates from the reference speed, the ABS control unit
attempts to correct that wheel speed by modulating the brake pressure until it again matches
the reference speed. When all four wheels tend to lock, all four wheels speeds suddenly
deviate from the previously determined reference speed. In that case, the control cycle is
initiated again in order to again correct the wheel speed by modulating the brake pressure.
Selector low control ▶
This control is used for regulating the brake pressure for rear axle during ABS operation. This
control uses lower adhesion coefficient to prevent the rear wheels from locking.

3. ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
(1) Electronic system service precautions
Take care to avoid electronic brake control module (HECU) circuit overloading. In testing for
opens or shorts, do not ground or apply voltage to any circuit unless instructed to do so by the
diagnostic procedure. Test circuits only with a high-impedance multi-meter. Never remove o
r
apply power to any control module with the ignition switch in the ON position. Always turn the
ignition to the OFF position before removing or connecting battery cables, fuses or connectors.
(2) General service precautions
Disconnect the HECU connector before performing any vehicle welding work using an electric
arc welder. Do not attempt to disassemble any component designated as nonserviceable. The
hydraulic modulator and the HECU can be seperated. (There is however no access to repai
r
the each components.)
(3) Bleeding system
Replacement modulators are shipped already filled and bled. In normal procedures requiring
removal of the modulator, such as to replace the HECU, air will not enter the modulator, and
normal bleeding will be all that is needed.
If air enters the hydraulic modulator, or if an unfilled modulator is installed, use the brake
bleeding program in the scan tool to bleed the modulator. Manual bleeding of the hydraulic
modulator is not possible.
1) Service Precautions
Brake Fluid may irritate eyes and skin. In case of contact, take the following actions:
Eye contact - rinse thoroughly with water.
Skin contact - wash with soap and water.
Ingestion - consult a physician immediately. -
-
-
To help avoid personal injury due to poor braking. DO NOT Tap into the vehicle’s
brake system to operate a trailer brake system.
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they
were removed. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use the correct part number fastener
for is not available, a fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger) may be used.
Fasteners that are not reused, and those requiring thread-locking compound will be
called out. The correct torque values must be used when installing fasteners that require
them. If the above procedures are not followed, parts or system damage could result.

(2) ABS Circuit Per ABS Operation Range
Hydraulic Pressure Circuit when ABS is Not Operating ▶
No Hydraulic Pressure Circuit when ABS is Operating ▶
The hydraulic pressure in the master cylinder increases through the vacuum booster and it is
delivered to the wheel via the normal open inlet valve. At this moment, the normally-closed
outlet valve is closed. The speed of the wheel that hydraulic pressure is delivered reduces
gradually
As hydraulic pressure on each wheel increases, the wheel tends to lock. In order to prevent the
wheel from locking, the hydraulic valve modulator operates the inlet valve control solenoid to
close the inlet valve and stop the hydraulic pressure increases. At this moment, the outlet valve
is closed. This procedure helps the wheel to maintain a stable hydraulic pressure.

Pressure Decreases in the Circuit when ABS is Operating ▶
Pressure Increases in the Circuit when ABS is Operating ▶
Even when the hydraulic pressure on each circuit is stable, the wheel can be locked as the
wheel speed decreases. This is when the ABS ECU detects the wheel speed and the vehicle
speed and gives the optimized braking without locking the wheels. In order to prevent from
hydraulic pressure increases, the inlet valve is closed and the outlet valve is opened. Also, the
oil is sent to the low pressure changer and the wheel speed increases again. The ABS ECU
operates the pump to circulate the oil in the low pressure chamber to the master cylinder. This
may make the driver to feel the brake pedal vibration and some noises.
As the wheel speed increases, the inlet valve opens and the wheel’s pressure increases
due to the master cylinder pressure. The oil in the low pressure chamber circulates to the wheel
by the pump and the wheel speed decreases as the hydraulic pressure at wheel increases. This
operation continues repetitively until there are no signs that the ECU is locking the wheels.
When the ABS hydraulic pressure control takes place, there may be some vibration and noises
at the brake pedal.

POWER STEERING SYSTEM
3. POWER STEERING PUMP
The vane type pump that is connected to engine by belt is used for the power steering system.
This pump generates and controls a proper hydraulic pressure and flows by using the flow
control valve and pressure relief valve.
The flow control valve regulates the excessive amount of discharging oil. When the steering
wheel is stationary or the oil circuit is blocked, the pressure relief valve returns the ove
r
pressurized oil to the oil reservoir.
4. OIL RESERVOIR
The oil reservoir sends the oil to the power steering pump and receives the oil from the power
steering gear.
The oil level in the reservoir depends on the steering wheel positions. therefore, measure the oil
level when the steering wheel is positioned at straight ahead direction (neutral).

AIR BAG SYSTEM
6) Contact Coil
The contact coil is installed between the steering wheel and the steering column and contains a
coil that enables to contact electrically between the airbag wiring harness, the driver airbag
module and the horn switch.
Turning the steering wheel more than three and onequarter turns may damage the clock
spring. The contact coil should never be disassembled and must be replaced if the airbag
have been deployed. -
Turn the label of the clock spring clockwise to lock and turn the label of the clock spring
counterclockwise approximately 2.9 ± 0.2 turns to the neutral positions with the front
wheels ahead.
Align the pointed marks “43”. -
7) Accelometer Sensor
The accelerometer sensor electronically represents the acceleration or deceleration of the
vehicle during a frontal impact.
In this electronic representation, the electrical signal is proportional to the acceleration o
r
deceleration of the vehicle.
8) Safety Sensor
The safety sensor is safety device made up of a dualcontact, electro-mechanical switch that:
Acts independently of the electronic components.
Connects the acceleration sensor in series in order to make up for the weak points in the
current electronic sensor. 1.
