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.

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.

WARNING SYSTEMS OPERATION
The ABS system uses an Amber Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp, located in the instrument cluster. The
purpose of the warning lamp is discussed in detail
below. The Amber Anti-Lock Warning Light will turn on
when the (CAB) detects a condition which results in
a shutdown of the Anti-Lock function. The Amber
Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is normally on until the
(CAB) completes its self tests and turns the lamp off
(approximately 1-2 seconds). When the Amber Anti-
Lock Warning Light is on only the Anti-Lock func-
tion of the brake system if affected. The standard
brake system and the ability to stop the car will not
be affected when only the Amber Anti-Lock Warning
Light is on.
NORMAL OPERATION OF WARNING LAMP
With the ignition in the Crank position, the Red
Brake Warning Lamp will turn on as a bulb check.
The Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp will stay on for
1-2 seconds then turn off. Once verification of the self
diagnosis is completed.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The following is a detailed description of the Anti-
Lock Brake System components. For information on
servicing the Four Wheel Disk Brake System, see the
standard Brake section of this Service Manual.
MODULATOR ASSEMBLY
WARNING: THE ONLY PART OF THE MODULATOR
ASSEMBLY THAT IS A SERVICEABLE COMPONENT
IS THE DELTA P SWITCH. THE REMAINING COM-
PONENTS OF THE MODULATOR ASSEMBLY ARE
NOT SERVICEABLE ITEMS. NO ATTEMPT SHOULD
BE MADE TO REMOVE OR SERVICE ANY OTHER
PARTS OF THE MODULATOR ASSEMBLY.
The Modulator Assembly (Fig. 1) is located under
the battery tray and is covered with an acid shield.
The Modulator Assembly contains the following com-
ponents for controlling the Anti-Lock braking sys-
tem. 2 Isolation Valves, 4 Build/Decay Valves, 4
Shuttle Orifices, 2 Fluid Sumps, 2 Accumulators, a
Pump/Motor and a Pressure Differential Valve/
Switch. Also attached to the Modulator Assembly are
4 brake tubes which are connected to an 8 way con-
nector block. The connector block is mounted to the
left frame rail below the master cylinder in the same location as the non ABS equipped combination valve.
The wheel brake lines are attached to the system via
the connector block.
ISOLATION VALVES
The Isolation Valves are used to isolate the master
cylinder from the rest of the brake hydraulic circuit
during an Anti-Lock stop. Two Isolation Valves are
used, one for the primary circuit and one for the sec-
ondary circuit. The Isolation Valves are spring
loaded in the released position. In the released posi-
tion the Isolation Valves provide a fluid path from
the master cylinder outputs to the wheel brakes via
the Build/Decay valves. When actuated it provides a
fluid path from the accumulator (which was charged
by the Pump/Motor during ABS operation) to the
Build/Decay valves through the Shuttle Orifices.
BUILD/DECAY VALVES
There are 4 Build/Decay valves, one for each
wheel. In the released position they provide a fluid
path from the wheel brakes to the Isolation Valve
through the shuttle orifices. In the actuated (decay)
position, they provide a fluid path from the wheel
brakes to the sump. The Build/Decay valves are
spring loaded in the released (build) position.
SHUTTLE ORIFICE
There are 4 Shuttle Orifice Valves, one for each
wheel. The Shuttle Orifice Valve is a hydraulically
actuated valve which shuttles when the Build/Decay
valve is actuated. Actuating of the Build/Decay valve
causes a pressure differential to be created across the
Shuttle Orifice Valve. This acts like placing an ori-
fice (restriction) in the line between the Isolation
Valve and the Build/Decay Valve. This restriction
provides a controlled build rate to each wheel brake
during an Anti-Lock stop. The Shuttle Orifice Valve
will remain in the orificed position until the ABS cy-
cle is complete. When the ABS cycle has been com-
pleted the Isolation and Build/Decay valves will
return to their released position which will equalize
the pressure across the Shuttle Orifice Valves. When
the pressure equalizes, the spring loaded Shuttle Or-
ifice valves will return to the unrestricted position.
FLUID SUMPS
There are two Fluid Sumps in the Hydraulic As-
sembly, one each for the primary and secondary hy-
draulic circuits. The Fluid Sumps store the brake
fluid that is decayed from the wheel brakes during
ABS cycle. This fluid is then pumped to an accumu-
lator and/or the hydraulic system in order to provide
build pressure. The typical pressure in the sumps is
50 psi, During ABS operation only.
5 - 116 ANTI-LOCK 6 BRAKE SYSTEM Ä

HYDRAULIC SPRING ACCUMULATOR
The Hydraulic Spring Accumulators (Fig. 2) (one
on each circuit) are used to store pressurized hydrau-
lic brake fluid during ABS operation only. This fluid
is used during hard braking when the ABS system is
activated, to supplement brake pressure when re-
quired. During normal Non ABS braking operation
there is NO pressurized brake fluid stored in the ac-
cumulators. The Hydraulic Spring Accumulators are
not a serviceable part of the Modulator Assembly
and should never be removed from the assembly.
PRESSURE DIFFERENTIAL VALVE/SWITCH
(DELTA P SWITCH)
The Pressure Differential Valve/Switch is located
inside the hydraulic assembly. This valve/switch func-
tions the same as the Pressure Differential
Valve/Switch located in the combination valve on stan-
dard brake systems. The delta P switch monitors the
primary and secondary hydraulic circuits for a differ-
ence in pressure. A pressure difference greater than
225 psi. Will move and latch the shuttle to ground the
Red Brake Warning Light circuit. This will in turn,
turn on the Red Brake Warning Light in the instru-
ment panel to warn the driver of a hydraulic system
problem. This Pressure Differential Valve Switch is a
replaceable item of the Modulator Assembly. The Red
Brake Warning Light indicates a problem with
the foundation brake system and not the Anti-
Lock system.
PUMP/MOTOR ASSEMBLY
The Modulator Assembly contains 2 Pump Assem-
blies, one each for the primary and secondary hydrau-
lic circuits. Both pumps are driven by a common
electric motor which is part of the Modulator Assembly.
The pumps pick up fluid from the sumps to supply
pressure to the accumulators or hydraulic system via
the isolation valves during an Anti-Lock stop. The
motor only runs during an ABS stop and is controlled
by the (CAB) via the Pump/Motor Relay. The
Pump/Motor Assembly is not a serviceable item. If it
requires service the Modulator Assembly must be re-
placed.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Throughout this group, references may be made to
a particular vehicle by letter or number designation.
A chart showing the break down of these designa-
tions is included in the Introduction Section at the
front of this service manual. Standard brake equipment consists of:
² Double pin floating caliper disc front brakes.
² Rear automatic adjusting drum brakes.
² Differential valve with a brake warning switch.
² Master cylinder.
² Vacuum power booster.
² Double pin floating caliper rear disc brakes are
available on some models. The Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System, uses the fol-
lowing standard brake system components. Master
cylinder, power booster, caliper assemblies, braking
discs, pedal assembly, brake lines and hoses. The
unique parts of the Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System
consists of the following components, modulator as-
sembly, unique proportioning valves, unique junction
block, wheel speed sensors, tone wheels, and elec-
tronic control unit. These components will be de-
scribed in detail in the Bendix Antilock 4 Brake
System section in this service manual supplement. The hydraulic system, (Fig. 1) on the Bendix Anti-
lock 4 brake system is diagonally split. Diagonally
split hydraulic brake systems, have the left front and
right rear brakes on one hydraulic system and the
right front and left rear on the other. A diagonally
split hydraulic brake system, will maintain half of
the vehicles braking capability if there is a failure in
either half of the hydraulic system. The Bendix Antilock 4 Brake System uses two
types of brake line fittings and tubing flares on the
modulator assembly (Fig. 1). The different types are
the ISO style and double wall style with their corre-
sponding fittings at different joint locations. See (Fig.
2) for specific joint locations and type of tubing
flares. CAUTION: When servicing a vehicle, sheet metal
screws, bolts or other metal fastener cannot be in-
stalled in a shock tower to take the place of any
original plastic clip. Also, NO holes can be drilled
into the front shock tower in the area shown in (Fig.
3), for installation of any metal fasteners into the
shock tower.
Because of minimum clearance in this area, (Fig.
3) installation of metal fasteners could damage the
coil spring coating and lead to a corrosion failure of
the spring. If a plastic clip is missing, lost or broken
during servicing a vehicle, replace only with the
equivalent part listed in the Mopar parts catalog.
