ABS OUT valve Power supply is not supplied (close) Power supply is not supplied (close)
Each brake caliper (fluid pressure) — Pressure decreases Name Not activated During pressure decreases
Component Function
Pump Returns the brake fluid reserved in reservoir to master cylinder by reducing pressure.
Motor Activates the pu mp according to signals from ABS actuator and el ectric unit (control unit).
Cut valve 1
Cut valve 2 Shuts off the ordinary brake line from master cylinder.
Suction valve 1
Suction valve 2 Supplies the brake fluid from master cylinder to the pump.
ABS IN valve Switches the fluid pressure line to increase or hold according to signals from control unit.
ABS OUT valve Switches the fluid pressure li ne to increase, hold or decrease according to si gnals from control unit.
Return check valve Returns the brake fluid from brake caliper to master cylinder by bypassing orifice of each valve when
brake is released.
Reservoir Temporarily reserves the brake fluid drained from brake caliper, so that pressure efficiently decreas-
es when decreasing pressure of brake caliper.
Pressure sensor Detects the brak e fluid pressure and transmits signal to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
