PREMATURE ABS CYCLING
NOTE: When working on a vehicle which has a
complaint of premature ABS cycling it may be nec-
essary to use a DRB Scan Tool to detect and verify
the condition.
There is one complaint called Premature ABS
Cycling in which neither the Red Brake Warning
Lamp nor the Amber Antilock Lamp were illumi-
nated and no fault codes were stored in the CAB.
Symptoms of Premature ABS Cycling, include click-
ing sounds from the solenoids valves, pump motor
running and pulsations in the brake pedal. This con-
dition can occur at any braking rate of the vehicle
and on any type of road surface. This creates an
additional condition which needs to be correctly
assessed when diagnosing problems with the antilock
brake system.
The following conditions are common causes that
need to be checked when diagnosing a condition of
Premature ABS Cycling. Damaged tone wheels,
incorrect tone wheels, damage to a wheel speed sen-
sor mounting boss on a steering knuckle, a loose
wheel speed sensor mounting bolt, and excessive tone
wheel runout. Also, an excessively large tone wheel
to wheel speed sensor air gap can lead to the condi-
tion of Premature ABS Cycling. Special attention is
to be given to these components when diagnosing a
vehicle exhibiting the condition of Premature ABS
Cycling. After diagnosing the defective component,
repair or replace as required.
When the component repair or replacement is com-
pleted, test drive the vehicle to verify the condition of
Premature ABS Cycling has been corrected.
ABS BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The following is a detailed description of the Teves
Mark 20 ABS brake system components. For infor-
mation on servicing the base brake system compo-
nents, see the base Brake System section of this
Service Manual.
ABS MASTER CYLINDER AND POWER BRAKE
BOOSTER
A vehicle equipped with Teves Mark 20 ABS
without optional traction control uses the same
type of a master cylinder and power brake
booster (Fig. 1) as a vehicle not equipped with
antilock brakes.
A vehicle equipped with Teves Mark 20 ABS
with Traction control uses a unique center port
master cylinder. If the master cylinder is
replaced on a vehicle equipped with traction
control be sure the right type of master cylin-
der is installed.A vehicle equipped with four wheel disc
brakes (AWD applications) also have a unique
master cylinder. The master cylinder used on
these vehicles have a piston bore diameter
which is larger then the master cylinder used
on the other brake applications.
The primary and secondary outlet ports on the
master cylinder go directly to the hydraulic control
unit HCU.
Reference the appropriate section of this service
manual for further information on the individual
components.
INTEGRATED CONTROL UNIT (ICU)
The hydraulic control unit (HCU) (Fig. 2) used
with the Teves Mark 20 ABS is different from the
HCU used on previous Chrysler products with ABS.
The HCU used on this ABS system is part of the
integrated contol unit (ICU). The HCU is part of
what is referred to as the ICU because the HCU and
the controller antilock brakes (CAB) are combined
(integrated) into one unit. This differs from previous
Chrysler products with ABS, where the HCU and the
CAB were separate components located in different
areas of the vehicle.
Teves Mark 20 ABS uses two different HCU's and
CAB's depending on the type of ABS system the vehi-
cle is equipped with. There is a unique HCU and
CAB for a vehicle equipped with just ABS and a
unique HCU and CAB for a vehicle equipped with
ABS and traction control.
NOTE: The HCU and CAB used on a vehicle that is
equipped with only ABS and on a vehicle that is
equipped with ABS and traction control are differ-
ent. The HCU on a vehicle equipped with ABS and
traction control has a valve block housing (Fig. 2)
that is approximately 1 inch longer on the low pres-
sure fluid accumulators side than a HCU for a vehi-
cle that is equipped with only ABS.

The ICU is located on the driver's side of the vehi-
cle, and is mounted to the front suspension cradle
(Fig. 3). TheABS onlyICU contains the following
components for controlling the brake system hydrau-
lic pressure during ABS braking: The CAB, eight
valve solenoids, (four inlet valves and four outlet
valves) fluid accumulators a pump, and an electric
motor. TheABS with traction controlICU con-
tains the following components for controlling the
brake system hydraulic pressure during ABS braking
and traction control operation: The CAB, four sole-
noid controlled inlet valves, four solenoid controlled
outlet valves, two hydraulic shuttle valves, two ASR
valves, fluid accumulators a pump and an electric
motor. Also attached to the hydraulic control unit are
the master cylinder primary and secondary brake
tubes and the brake tubes going to each wheel of the
vehicle. (Fig. 3).
CAUTION: No components of the ICU are service-
able. If any component that makes up the ICU is
diagnosed as not functioning properly it MUST be
replaced. The replaceable components of the ICU,
are the HCU and the CAB (Fig. 2) and (Fig. 3). The
mounting bracket is also replaceable as a separate
component of the ICU. The remaining components
of the ICU are not serviceable items. No attempt
should ever be made to remove or service any indi-
vidual components of the HCU. This is due to the
concern of contamination entering the HCU while
performing a service procedure. Also no attempt
should ever be made to remove or service any indi-
vidual components of the CAB.
CAUTION: At no time when servicing the ICU
should a 12 volt power source be applied to any
electrical connector of the HCU or the CAB.INLET VALVES AND SOLENOIDS
There are four inlet solenoids, one for each wheel.
In the released position they provide a fluid path
from the master cylinder to the wheel brakes of the
vehicle. When the ABS cycle has been completed the
inlet solenoids will return to their released (open)
position.
OUTLET VALVES AND SOLENOIDS
There are four outlet solenoids, one for each wheel.
In the released position they are closed to allow for
normal braking. In the actuated (open) position, they
provide a fluid path from the wheel brakes of the
vehicle to the hydraulic control unit HCU accumula-
tors and pump motor. The outlet solenoids are spring
loaded in the released (closed) position during normal
braking.
ASR VALVE (ABS WITH TRACTION CONTROL
ONLY)
On vehicles equipped with ABS having traction
control, there are two special ASR valves located in
the HCU portion of the ICU. The ASR valves are a
normally open type valve and are solenoid actuated.
The special ASR valves are used to isolate the rear
(non-driven) wheels of the vehicle from the hydraulic
pressure that the HCU pump motor is sending to the
front (driven) wheels, when the traction control sys-
tem is in operation. The rear brakes need to be iso-
lated from the master cylinder when traction control
is in operation so that the HCU can build the
required hydraulic pressure to the front brakes.
HCU BRAKE FLUID ACCUMULATORS AND NOISE
DAMPING CHAMBER
There are two brake fluid accumulators in the
HCU. There is one brake fluid accumlator for the pri-
mary and secondary hydraulic circuits. The brake

fluid accumulators temporarily store brake fluid that
is decayed from the wheel brakes during an ABS
cycle. This stored brake fluid is then used by the
pump in the HCU to provide build pressure for the
brake hydraulic system.
Additionally on vehicles that are equipped with
only ABS (non-traction control vehicles) there is a
mini brake fluid accumulator on the secondary
hydraulic circuit which protects the master cylinder's
seals during an ABS stop. There is also a noise
damping chamber on the primary hydraulic circuit.
On ABS equipped vehicles with traction control, in
addition to the brake fluid accumulators there are
also two noise damping chambers in the HCU.
HCU PUMP/MOTOR
The HCU (Fig. 4) contains 2 pump assemblies, one
for the primary and one for the secondary hydraulic
circuit of the brake system. Both pumps are driven
by a common electric motor (Fig. 4) which is part of
the HCU. The pumps draw brake fluid from the fluid
accumulators to supply build pressure to the brakes
during an ABS stop. The pump motor runs during
the drive-off cycle as a check and during an ABS stop
and is controlled by the CAB. The Pump/Motor
Assembly is not a serviceable item. If the pump/mo-
tor requires replacement the complete HCU (Fig. 4)
(minus the CAB) must be replaced.
ABS FUSES
The fuse for the ABS pump motor and the ABS system
are located in the power distribution center (PDC) (Fig. 5).
The PDC is located on the drivers side of the engine com-
partment forward of the strut tower. The fuse for the ABS
warning lamp in the instrument panel message center is
located in the junction block.
On vehicles equipped with traction control, the
fuse for the traction control switch is also located in
the junction block.The junction block is located on the left hand front
cowl panel on the vehicle.
ABS RELAYS
On the Teves Mark 20 Antilock Brake System both
the pump motor relay and the system relay are
located in the CAB. If either of the relays is diag-
nosed as not functioning properly the CAB will need
to be replaced. Refer to Controller Antilock Brakes in
the Removal And Installation Section in this group of
the service manual for the procedure.
PROPORTIONING VALVES
One assembly containing two proportioning valves
are used in the system, one for each rear brake
hydraulic circuit. The proportioning valve is located
on the frame rail next to the fuel tank, forward of the
right rear shock absorber (Fig. 6). Be sure replace-
ment proportioning valve assemblies have the same
split point and slope as the proportioning valve being
replaced.
WHEEL SPEED SENSORS
One Wheel Speed Sensor WSS is located at each
front and rear wheel of the vehicle (Fig. 7), (Fig. 8)
and (Fig. 9). The wheel speed sensor sends a small
AC signal to the CAB. This signal is generated by
magnetic induction created when a toothed sensor
ring (tone wheel) (Fig. 7), (Fig. 8) and (Fig. 9) passes
the stationary magnetic wheel speed sensor. The
CAB converts the AC signal generated at each wheel
into a digital signal. If a wheel locking tendency is
detected by the CAB, it will then modulate hydraulic
pressure via the HCU to prevent the wheel(s) from
locking.

The front wheel speed sensor is attached to a boss
in the steering knuckle (Fig. 7). The front tone wheel
(Fig. 7) is part of the driveshafts outboard constant
velocity joint. The rear wheel speed sensor ismounted through the rear axle, rear brake support
plate and directly to the rear bearing (Fig. 8) (Fig. 9).
The rear tone wheel on a front wheel drive vehicle is
an integral part of the rear wheel hub/bearing
assembly. If damaged though, the rear tone wheel on
a front wheel drive vehicle can be replaced as a indi-
vidual component of the rear hub/bearing assembly.
Refer to Rear Tone Wheel in the Remove And Install
Section in this group of the service manual for the
required procedure. The wheel speed sensor air gap
is NOT adjustable.
The rear tone wheel on a all wheel drive vehicle, is
part of the outboard constant velocity joint on the
rear driveshaft (Fig. 9).
The four wheel speed sensors are all serviced indi-
vidually, but the front tone wheel on all vehicles and
the rear tone wheel on all wheel drive vehicles are
serviced as part of the front or rear driveshaft out-
board constant velocity joint (Fig. 7) and (Fig. 9).
Correct ABS system operation is dependent on
accurate wheel speed signals. The vehicle's wheels
and tires must all be the same size and type to gen-
erate accurate signals. Variations in wheel and tire
size can produce inaccurate wheel speed signals,
which can cause false ABS cycles to occur.
CONTROLLER ANTILOCK BRAKES (CAB)
The Controller Antilock Brakes (CAB) is a micro-
processor based device which monitors the ABS sys-
tem during normal braking and controls it when the
vehicle is in an ABS stop. The CAB is mounted to the
bottom of the HCU (Fig. 10). The CAB uses a 25 way
electrical connector on the vehicle wiring harness.
The power source for the CAB is through the ignition
switch in the Run or On position.THE (CAB) IS ON

The primary functions of the (CAB) are:
(1) Detect wheel locking or wheel slipping tenden-
cies by monitoring the speed of all four wheels of the
vehicle.
(2) Illuminate the TRAC lamp in the message cen-
ter on the instrument panel when a traction control
event is occurring.
(3) Control fluid modulation to the wheel brakes
while the system is in an ABS mode or the traction
control system is activated.
(4) Monitor the system for proper operation.
(5) Provide communication to the DRB Scan Tool
while in diagnostic mode.
(6) Store diagnostic information.
(7)The CAB continuously communicates with
the body controller by sending out a message to
the body controller on the CCD Bus. This mes-
sage is used for illumination of the yellow
antilock warning lamp. This is used if the ABS
controller communication is lost in the hard
wire between the body controller and the yel-
low antilock warning lamp. If the body control-
ler does not receive this message from the CAB,
the body controller will illuminate the antilock
yellow warning lamp.
The CAB continuously monitors the speed of each
wheel through the signals generated by the wheel
speed sensors to determine if any wheel is beginning
to lock. When a wheel locking tendency is detected,
the CAB commands the CAB command coils to actu-
ate. The CAB command coils then open and close the
valves in the HCU which modulate brake fluid pres-
sure in some or all of the hydraulic circuits. The CAB
continues to control pressure 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 will turn on the Amber ABS Warning Lamp anddisable the ABS braking system. The normal base
braking system will remain operational.
The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program which
will turn on the Amber ABS Warning Lamp when a
ABS system fault is detected. Faults are then stored
in a diagnostic program memory. There are multiple
fault messages which may be stored in the CAB and
displayed through the DRB Scan Tool. These fault
messages will remain in the CAB memory even after
the ignition has been turned off. The fault messages
can be read and or cleared from the CAB memory by
a technician using the DRB Scan Tool. The fault
occurrence and the fault code will also be automati-
cally cleared from the CAB memory after the identi-
cal fault has not been seen during the next 3500
miles of vehicle operation. Mileage though of the last
fault occurrence will not be automatically cleared.CONTROLLER ANTILOCK BRAKE INPUTS

ABS WARNING LAMP (YELLOW)
The ABS system uses a yellow colored ABS Warn-
ing Lamp. The ABS warning lamp is located on the
right side of the message center located at the top of
the instrument panel. The purpose of the warning
lamp is discussed in detail below.
The ABS warning lamp will turn on when the CAB
detects a condition which results in a shutdown of
ABS function or when the body controller does not
receive C2D messages from the CAB. When the igni-
tion key is turned to the on position, the ABS Warn-
ing Lamp is on until the CAB completes its self tests
and turns the lamp off (approximately 4 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned on). Under most
conditions, when the ABS warning lamp is on, only
the ABS function of the brake system is affected. The
standard brake system and the ability to stop the car
will not be affected when only the ABS warning lamp
is on.
The ABS warning lamp is controlled by the CAB
and the body controller through a diode located in
the wiring harness junction block. The junction block
is located under the instrument panel to the left of

HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS AND VALVE OPERATION
Through the following operation descriptions the
function of the various hydraulic control valves in the
ABS will be described. The fluid control valves men-
tioned below, control the flow of pressurized brake
fluid to the wheel brakes during the different modes
of ABS braking.
For explanation purposes, all wheel speed sensors
except the right front are sending the same wheel
speed information. The following diagrams show only
the right front wheel in a antilock braking condition.
NORMAL BRAKING HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT AND
SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION
This condition is the normal operation of the vehi-
cles base brake hydraulic system. The hydraulic sys-
tem circuit diagram (Fig. 11) shows a situation where
no wheel spin or slip is occurring relative to the
speed of the vehicle. The driver is applying the brake
pedal to build pressure in the brake hydraulic system
to apply the brakes and stop the vehicle.
TEVES MARK 20 ABS CIRCUIT AND
SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION
This hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 12) shows the
vehicle in the ABS braking mode. This hydraulic cir-
cuit (Fig. 12) shows a situation where one wheel is
slipping because the driver is attempting to stop the
vehicle at a faster rate than the surface the vehicle's
tires are on will allow. The normally open and nor-
mally closed valves modulate the brake hydraulic
pressure as required. The pump/motor is switched on
so that the brake fluid from the low pressure accu-
mulators is returned to the master cylinder circuits.
The brake fluid will then be routed to either the mas-
ter cylinder or the wheel brake depending on the
position of the normally open valve.

The brake fluid will then be routed to either the mas-
ter cylinder or the wheel brake depending on the
position of the normally open valve. A volume of 1.2
cc's of brake fluid is taken in by the lip seal saver
(Fig. 13) to protect the lip seals on the piston of the
master cylinder.
TEVES MARK 20 ABS WITH TRACTION
CONTROL NORMAL BRAKING HYDRAULIC
CIRCUIT ± SOLENOID AND SHUTTLE VALVE
FUNCTION
This condition is the normal operation of the vehi-
cles base brake hydraulic system when the vehicle is
equipped with ABS and traction control. The hydrau-
lic system circuit diagram (Fig. 14) shows a situation
where no wheel spin or slip is occurring relative to
the speed of the vehicle. The driver is applying the
brake pedal to build pressure in the brake hydraulic
system to apply the brakes and stop the vehicle. The
hydraulic shuttle valve (Fig. 14) closes with every
brake pedal application so pressure is not created at
the inlet to the pump.
TEVES MARK 20 ABS WITH TRACTION
CONTROL ABS BRAKING HYDRAULIC
CIRCUIT ± SOLENOID AND SHUTTLE VALVE
FUNCTION
This hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 15) shows a
vehicle equipped with ABS and traction control in
the ABS braking mode. This hydraulic circuit (Fig.
15) shows a situation where one wheel is slipping
because the driver is attempting to stop the vehicle
at a faster rate than the surface the vehicle's tires
are on will allow. The hydraulic shuttle valve (Fig.
15) closes upon brake application so that the pump
can not suck brake fluid from the master cylinder.
The normally open and normally closed valves mod-
ulate the brake hydraulic pressure as required. The
pump/motor is switched on so that the brake fluid
from the low pressure accumulators is returned to
the master cylinder circuits. The brake fluid will
then be routed to either the master cylinder or the
wheel brake depending on the position of the nor-
mally open valve.
