BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM 5A-19
System Components
Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU), four Wheel
Speed Sensors, two Warning Lamps, and G-sensor.
Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU)
The EHCU consists of ABS control circuits, fault
detector, and a fail-safe. It drives the EHCU according
to the signal from each sensor, cancelling ABS to return
to normal braking when a malfunction has occurred in
the ABS.
The EHCU has a self-diagnosing function which can
indicate faulty circuits during diagnosis.
The EHCU is mounted on the engine compartment rear
left side. It consists of a motor, solenoid valves fail safe
relay.
Solenoid Valves: Reduces or holds the caliper fluid
pressure for each front brake or both rear brakes
according to the signal sent from the EHCU.
Buffer chamber: Temporarily holds the brake fluid that
returns from the front and rear brake so that pressure
of front brake can be reduced smoothly.
Motor: Drives the pump according to the signal from
EHCU.
Fail safe Relay: When failure occurs in ABS.
The power supply to solenoid Valve is cut.
ABS Warning Lamp
825L300001
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-lock Brake System
have an amber “ABS” warning lamp in the instrument
panel. The “ABS” warning lamp will illuminate if a
malfunction in the Anti-lock Brake System is detected
by the Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU). In
case of an electronic malfunction, the EHCU will turn
“ON” the “ABS” warning lamp and disable the anti-lock
braking function.
The “ABS” warning lamp will turn “ON” for
approximately three seconds after the ignition switch is
to the “ON” position.
If the “ABS” warning lamp stays “ON” after the ignition
switch is the “ON” position, or comes “ON” and stays
“ON” while driving, the Anti-lock Brake System should
be inspected for a malfunction according to the
diagnosis procedure.
Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS)
It consists of a sensor and a rotor. The sensor is
attached to the knuckle on the front wheels and to the
rear wheels.
The rotor is press-fit in the axle shaft.
G-Sensor
The G-sensor detects the vehicle deceleration speed
and sends a signal to the EHCU. In 4WD operation, all
four wheels may be decelerated in almost the same
phase, since all wheels are connected mechanically.
This tendency is noticeable particularly on roads with
low friction coefficient, and the ABS control is adversely
affected.
The G-sensor judges whether the friction coefficient of
road surface is low or high, and changes the EHCU's
operating system to ensure ABS and EBD control.
Normal and Anti-lock Braking
Under normal driving conditions, the Anti-lock Brake
System functions the same as a standard power
assisted brake system. However, with the detection of
wheel lock-up, a slight bump or kick-back will be felt in
the brake pedal. This pedal “bump” will be followed by a
series of short pedal pulsations which occurs in rapid
succession. The brake pedal pulsation will continue
until there is no longer a need for the anti-lock function
or until the vehicle is stopped. A slight ticking or
popping noise may be heard during brake applications
when the anti-lock features is being used.
When the anti-lock feature is being used, the brake
pedal may rise even as the brakes are being applied.
This is also normal. Maintaining a constant force on
the pedal will provide the shortest stopping distance.

5A-20 BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM
Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System
ABS has the EBD function. EBD is a function which
controls braking force distribution of a front wheel and a
rear wheel, and makes brake fluid pressure of a rear
wheel the optimal. If the rate of a slip of a rear wheel
becomes large more than fixed compared with a front
wheel about the rate of a slip in order to perform
braking force distribution of a front wheel and a rear
wheel, the brake fluid pressure of a rear wheel will be
controlled. EBD enables it to always utilize the braking
power of a rear wheel for the maximum according to
the load change concerning the back axis by vehicles
loading states (No luggage, loading, etc.), deceleration,
etc. Brake fluid pressure control to a rear wheel is
performed by the EBD function which used the ABS
function without the mechanical proportioning valve.
C05L300016
Brake Pedal Travel
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-lock Brake System may
be stopped by applying normal force to the brake pedal.
Although there is no need to push the pedal beyond the
point where it stops or holds the vehicle, by applying
more force the pedal will continue to travel toward the
floor.
This extra brake pedal travel is normal.

General Diagnosis
General Information
ABS troubles can be classified into two types, those
which can be detected by the ABS warning lamp and
those which can be detected as a vehicle abnormality
by the driver.
In either case, locate the fault in accordance with the
“BASIC DIAGNOSTIC FLOWCHART” and repair.
Please refer to Section 5C for the diagnosis of
mechanical troubles such as brake noise, brake judder
(brake pedal or vehicle vibration felt when braking),
uneven braking, and parking brake trouble.
