1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1) What is ABS?
When braking suddenly or braking on slippery roads, the vehicle keeps moving forward but the wheels
are locking and not rotating. If these happen, the vehicle may lose stability or rotate resulting in an
accident. ABS helps to maintain directional stability and control of the vehicle. ABS is designed to
secure more safety and increase the control of steering wheel during emergency braking situation. But,
ABS does not guarantee perfect safety beyond its physical limit. ABS in this vehicle contains EBD
function. In normal driving conditions, the brake system operates without ABS function.
2) What is EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)?
EBD is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a
vehicle's brakes, based on road conditions, speed, loading, etc. Always coupled with anti-lock braking
systems, EBD can apply more or less braking pressure to each wheel in order to maximize stopping
power whilst maintaining vehicular control. EBD does not operate when ABS is working. ABS effect according to braking conditions

4WD - Front/Rear wheel speed
sensor
2WD - Front wheel speed sensor
2WD - Rear wheel speed sensor
ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 1.
ECU calculates the wheel speed, acceleration and
deceleration with the information from wheel
speed sensor, and determines the wheel slip to
control the valve and motor.
HU (Hydraulic Unit) 2.
The hydraulic circuit contains the primary circuit
and secondary circuit for ABS operation. This unit
controls the hydraulic pressure to each wheel. If
the system needs ABS operation, the valves in
the unit operate to control HOLD, RISE and
DUMP according to ECU control logic.
Motor 3.
The motor is operated when ABS is activated. The
cam-shaped output shaft of the motor enables the
brake system to receive and supply the brake fluid
during the motor operation.
Wheel speed sensor
Wheel speed sensor sends the data detected by
tone wheel to HECU.

G-sensor (only for 4WD)
For the vehicle with the ABS, a speed difference
between the wheels is not noticeable as all the
wheels are slipping during abrupt braking.
Therefore, the vehicle needs the speed
information from other sensors other than the
wheel speed sensor. On the 2WD vehicle, there
is not large difference between the vehicle speed
reduction and actual wheel speed reduction in
the event of braking since the driving wheels are
in the front. So, the ABS HECU can control the
vehicle, based on a calculation value. But, on the
4WD vehicle, if a speed reduction occurs in the
front or rear of the vehicle, it affects the other side
wheel. In other words, braking the rear wheels
induces also a large speed reduction in the front
wheels. The longitudinal acceleration sensor is
used for this case. It controls the ABS by using
the signals from the sensor during abrupt braking
and acceleration.

4. WARNING LAMPS
1) ABS Warning Lamp
ABS warning lamp module indicates the self diagnosis and malfunction.
ABS warning lamp ON:
When turning the ignition switch to ON position, ABS warning lamp comes on for 3 seconds for self-
diagnosis and goes off if the system is OK (initialization mode).
When the system is defective, the warning lamp comes on.
When the self-diagnosis is performing, the warning lamp comes on.
When the HECU connector is disconnected, the warning lamp comes on.
ABS is not available during lamp ON. In this condition, Only normal brake system without ABS function
is available.
When the communication between warning lamp CAN module in meter cluster, the warning lamp
comes on. 1.

2) EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution) Warning Lamp (Brake
Warning Lamp)
EBD warning lamp when the system performs the self diagnosis and when it detects the malfunction of
EBD system. However, the brake warning lamp comes on regardless of EBD when the parking brake is
applied.
EBD warning lamp ON:
When turning the ignition switch to ON position, ABS warning lamp and the brake warning lamp
comes on for 3 seconds for self diagnosis and goes off if the system is OK (initialization mode).
When applying the parking brake, the brake warning lamp comes on.
When the brake fluid is not sufficient, the brake warning lamp comes on.
When the self-diagnosis is performing, the warning lamp comes on.
When the HECU connector is disconnected, the warning lamp comes on.
When the system is defective, ABS warning lamp and the brake warning lamp come on
simultaneously. 1.

1) Block Diagram of ABS HECU

2) DUMP (ABS is working) Mode
Even when the hydraulic pressure on each circuit is constant, the wheel can be locked as the wheel
speed decreases. This is when the ABS HECU detects the wheel speed and the vehicle speed and
gives the optimized braking without locking the wheels. In order to prevent the hydraulic pressure from
increasing, the inlet valve will be closed, the outlet valve will be opened and the oil will flow into the low
pressure chamber. In addition, the ABS HECU operates the pump to circulate the oil in the low pressure
chamber to the master cylinder. This may make the driver to feel the brake pedal vibration and some
noises.
