GENERAL INFORMATION
The purpose of the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
is to prevent wheel lock-up under heavy braking con-
ditions on virtually any type of road surface. Anti-
Lock Braking is desirable because a vehicle which is
stopped without locking the wheels will retain direc-
tional stability and some steering capability. This al-
lows the driver to retain greater control of the
vehicle during heavy braking.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM DEFINITIONS
In this section of the manual several abbreviations
are used for the components that are in the Anti-
Lock Braking System They are listed below for your
reference.
² CABÐController Anti-Lock Brake
² ABSÐAnti-Lock Brake System
² PSIÐPounds per Square Inch (pressure)
² WSSÐWheel Speed Sensor
NORMAL BRAKING SYSTEM FUNCTION
Under normal braking conditions, the ABS System
functions much the same as a standard brake system
with a diagonally split master cylinder. The primary
difference is that power assist is provided by hydrau-
lic power assist instead of the conventional vacuum
assist. If a wheel locking tendency is noticed during a
brake application, the system will enter Anti-Lock
mode. During Anti-Lock braking, hydraulic pressure
in the four wheel circuits is modulated to prevent
any wheel from locking. Each wheel of the vehicle
has a set of electrical solenoid valves and hydraulic
line to provide hydraulic modulation. For vehicle sta-
bility, though both rear wheel valves receive the
same electrical signal. The system can build, hold or
reduce pressure at each wheel of the vehicle. This is
determined by the signals generated by the wheel

speed sensors (WSS) at each wheel and received at
the Controller-Anti-Lock Brake (CAB).
MAJOR ABS COMPONENTS
The following is a list of major system components.
Details of all components can be found later in this
section.
HYDRAULIC ASSEMBLY
The Hydraulic Assembly (Fig. 1) provides the func-
tion of an integral master cylinder and hydraulic
booster assembly. The hydraulic assembly contains
the wheel circuit valves used for brake pressure mod-
ulation.
WHEEL SPEED SENSORS
A Wheel Speed Sensor (Fig. 2) is located at each
wheel to transmit wheel speed information to the
Controller Anti-Lock Brake (CAB).
CONTROLLER-ANTI-LOCK BRAKE (CAB)
The (CAB) (Fig. 3) is a small control computer that
receives wheel speed information, controls Anti-Lock
operation and monitors system operation.
PUMP/MOTOR ASSEMBLY
The Pump/Motor Assembly (Fig. 4) is an electri-
cally driven pump. It takes low pressure brake fluid
from the hydraulic assembly reservoir and pressur- izes it for storage in the accumulators for power as-
sist and Anti -Lock braking.

difference is that power assist is provided by hydrau-
lic power assist instead of the conventional vacuum
assist. If a wheel locking tendency is noticed during a
brake application, the system will enter Anti-Lock
mode. During Anti-Lock braking, hydraulic pressure
in the four wheel circuits is modulated to prevent
any wheel from locking. Each wheel has a set of elec-
trical solenoid valves and a hydraulic line to provide
hydraulic modulation. For vehicle stability, though
both rear wheel valves receive the same electrical
signal. The system can build, hold or reduce pressure
at each wheel. Depending on the signals generated
by the wheel speed sensors (WSS) at each wheel and
received at the Controller-Anti-Lock Brake (CAB). The ABS system represents current state-of-the-art
in vehicle braking systems. The ABS system offers the driver increased safety and vehicle control during
hard braking. This is accomplished by a sophisticated
system of electrical and hydraulic components. That
differ from conventional vacuum boosted hydraulic
actuation systems. Because, there are several perfor-
mance characteristics that may at first seem differ-
ent but should be considered normal. These
characteristics are discussed below. More technical
details are discussed further in this section.
PEDAL FEEL
The ABS System uses hydraulic power assist for
both normal power assisted braking and to provide a
source of high pressure hydraulic fluid during Anti-
Lock Braking. In general, pedal feel will be similar
to that of a conventional vacuum boosted brake sys-
tem. If during an Anti-Lock stop additional force is
applied to the brake pedal, or the brake pedal is re-
leased and reapplied rapidly. The driver may notice a
very hard pedal feel. This is due to normal isolation
of the master cylinder during A.B.S. operation as
wheel brake pressure is fed from the hydraulic
booster.
ANTI-LOCK OPERATION
During Anti-Lock Braking, brake pressures are
modulated by cycling electric 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, although no pedal
movement will be noticed. If Anti-Lock operation oc-
curs during hard braking. Some pulsation may be
felt in the vehicle body due to fore and aft movement
of the vehicles suspension as brake pressures are
modulated. Although ABS operation is available at virtually
all vehicle speeds. It will automatically turn off at
speeds below 3 to 5 mph. Therefore wheel lock-up
may be perceived at the very end of an Anti-Lock
stop and should be considered normal.
TIRE NOISE & MARKS
Although the ABS system prevents complete wheel
lock-up, some wheel slip is desired to achieve opti-
mum braking performance. During brake pressure
modulation, as brake pressure is increased, wheel
slip is allowed to reach up to 30%. This means that
the wheel rolling velocity 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 payment. However, Anti-Lock Braking
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.

pared by the (CAB) and used to detect brake system
faults that would require Anti -Lock Braking to be
disabled.The Boost Pressure Transducer is mounted on the
bottom of the hydraulic assembly, (Fig. 1) and moni-
tors booster servo pressure. The Primary Pressure
Transducer is mounted on the left side of the hydrau-
lic assembly and monitors primary master cylinder
pressure.
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SWITCH
A non-latching Differential Pressure Switch is used
to detect a pressure difference greater than 2,068
kPa (300 psi.) between the primary and secondary
master cylinder hydraulic circuits. If detected, the
Differential Pressure Switch grounds the output of
the primary pressure transducer (circuit B-218). This
results in a 0.0 volt signal from the Primary Pres-
sure Transducer that is sensed by the (CAB) as a dif-
ferential pressure fault. The (CAB) will then light
the Red Brake Warning Lamp and the Amber Anti-
Lock Warning Lamp and disable the Anti-Lock brak-
ing function. See Fig. 1 for location of the differential
pressure switch.
PROPORTIONING VALVES
The ABS system uses screw-in Proportioning
Valves in place of the conventional Height Sensing Proportioning Valve. Each rear brake circuit has its
own screw-in Proportioning Valve that is attached to
the rear brake outlet ports of the hydraulic assembly
(Fig. 1). These valves limit brake pressure to the
rear brakes after a certain brake pressure is reached.
This improves front to rear wheel brake balance dur-
ing normal braking.
FILTERS-SERVICEABILITY
There is a screen filter in each of the two master
cylinder fill ports. There is also a low pressure filter
for the pump/motor. The filter is integral to the
Pump/Motor low pressure hose.
FLUID LEVEL SWITCH
A Low Fluid Switch is located in the hydraulic as-
sembly fluid reservoir, (Fig. 1). The switch consists of
a float and magnetic reed switch that closes when
low fluid is detected. The Low Fluid Switch is used
as an input, to the Red Brake Warning Lamp, the
(CAB), and the EVIC (if so equipped). When a low
fluid condition exists the switch will close, grounding
the low fluid circuit and illuminating the Red Brake
Warning Lamp. The (CAB) will disable the Anti-
Lock Function and light the Amber Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp if vehicle is in motion above 3 mph. If
vehicle is not in motion, the Amber Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp will NOT be lit.

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

stant velocity joint housings. The rear Tone Wheels
are serviced as an assembly with the rear disc brake
rotor hub. Correct Anti-Lock System operation is dependent
on wheel speed signals from the wheel speed sensors.
The vehicles' wheels and tires must all be the same
size and type to generate accurate signals. In addi-
tion, the tires must be inflated to the recommended
pressures for optimum system operation. Variations
in wheel and tire size or significant variations in in-
flation pressure can produce inaccurate wheel speed
signals.
CONTROLLER ANTI-LOCK BRAKE (CAB)
The Anti-Lock Brake Controller is a small micro-
processor based device that monitors the brake sys- tem and controls the system while it functions in
Anti-Lock Mode. The CAB is located under the bat-
tery tray and is mounted to the left frame rail (Fig.
7) and uses a 60-way system connector. The power
source for the CAB is through the ignition switch to
pin 60 of the controller. With the ignition in the
RUN or ON position. IF THE (ABS) CONTROL-
LER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BE SURE THE
CORRECT CONTROLLER IS USED. THE CON-
TROLLER ANTI-LOCK BRAKE (CAB) IS NOT

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.

ABS SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC CONNECTOR
The Bendix Anti-Lock system diagnostic connector
is located under the lower dash panel or in the area
of the fuse box (Fig. 8). The fuse box is located be-
hind the access panel that is on the bottom portion of
the dash panel, left of the steering column. The diag-
nostics connector is a blue 6 way connector.
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.
ANTI-LOCK WARNING LAMP RELAY
The Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is controlled by the
Yellow Light Relay. See (Fig. 10) for location behind
the left headlight. With the relay de-energized, the
lamp is lit. When the system relay is energized by
