MAIN COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONS
.
Parts nameNo.Functional description
SensorWheel speed sensor1Outputs the frequency signal in proportion to the
rotation speed of each wheel to ABS-ECU.
Magnetic encoder for
wheel speed detection2The wheel speed sensor is a pulse generator. When
the magnetic encoder for wheel speed detection (a
plate on which north and south pole sides of the
magnets are arranged alternately) rotates, it outputs
frequency pulse signal in proportion to each wheel
speed.
Stop light switch3Outputs the signal indicating whether the brake pedal
is depressed or not through ETACS-ECU to ABS-ECU
via the CAN line.
ActuatorHydraulic unit4Drives the solenoid valve using the signal from
ABS-ECU, and controls the brake fluid pressure for
each wheel.
ABS warning light5Informs the driver of the system status by illuminating,
flashing, or turning off the warning light according to
the signal from ABS-ECU.
Brake warning light6Used as the warning light for the parking brake, brake
fluid level, and EBD control. Informs the driver of the
system status by illuminating or turning off the warning
light according to the signal from ABS-ECU, ETACS or
combination meter.
Data link connector7Establishes the communication with scan tool.
ABS control unit (ABS-ECU)8Controls the actuators (described above) based on the
signals coming from each sensors.
Controls the self-diagnostic functions and fail-safe
functions.
Controls diagnostic function (Compatible with scan
tool).

CONSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION
SENSORM2351001000494
Wheel speed sensor
The wheel speed sensor is a kind of a pulse genera-
tor. It consists of the magnetic encoder for wheel
speed detection (a plate on which north and south
pole sides of the magnets are arranged alternately)
which rotates at the same speed of the wheel and
the wheel speed sensor (semiconductor sensor).
This sensor outputs frequency pulse signals in pro
-
portion to the wheel speed.
The front wheel speed sensor consists of the front
wheel speed sensor mounted on the knuckle and the
magnetic encoder for wheel speed detection which is
press-fitted together with the oil seal to the front
wheel bearing. The rear wheel speed sensor con
-
sists of the rear wheel speed sensor mounted on the
trailing arm assembly and the magnetic encoder for
wheel speed detection which is press-fitted together
with the oil seal to the rear wheel bearing.
ACTUATORSM2351002000356
ABS warning light, Brake warning light
The ABS system informs the driver of the ABS sys-
tem status by illuminating, extinguishing, or flashing
the ABS warning light and brake warning light as fol
-
lows.
ABS warning light
•Turns ON when a system malfunction occurs.
Brake warning light
•Turns ON when an EBD system malfunction
occurs.
NOTE: .
•Turns ON when the brake fluid level in the
reservoir tank becomes the specified value or
lower.
•Turns ON when the parking brake lever is
pulled and the brake is activated.

nated until the ignition is switched off.

ABS-ECUM2351003000520
•By integrating ABS-ECU into the hydraulic unit,
no wiring harness for sending drive signal of the
solenoid valve and pump motor is required,
assuring higher reliability.
•Self-diagnostic and memory functions are inte-
grated into ABS-ECU. If any malfunction is
detected by the self-diagnostic function,
ABS-ECU activates a fail-safe function and illumi
-
nates the ABS warning light and brake warning
light
*.
NOTE: *: The brake warning light is used as the
EBD control warning light.
•ABS-ECU detects vehicle speed from the signals
of the wheel speed sensor and its recognizes the
wheel rotation status, estimates the wheel slip
condition based on the preprogrammed algo
-
rithm, and then controls the solenoid valve in the
hydraulic unit so that the wheels do not lock.
ABS hydraulic pressure control
ABS control cycle
1. The ABS-ECU calculates the speed and deceler-
ation of each wheel based on the signals from the
four wheel speed sensors, and estimates the
vehicle speed at that time.
2. When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake
fluid pressure applied to the wheel cylinder
increases, and the wheel speed decreases.
When the difference between the wheel speed
and vehicle speed increases, and the vehicle
deceleration goes below the specified value (Point A), ECU determines that the wheels are
about to be locked. At this time, ECU reduces the
brake fluid pressure by outputting the pressure
decrease signal to the solenoid valves (IN, OUT).
(between a and b)
3. When the vehicle deceleration and wheel speed
begin recovery, and the vehicle speed reaches
the point B, ECU outputs the pressure hold signal
to maintain the wheel cylinder fluid pressure.
