System Description and Function Operation

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTIONAL OPERATION

TEVES MARK 20e SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The controller antilock brake module is used to monitor wheel speeds and to modulate (control) hydraulic pressure in each brake channel. The modulated hydraulic pressure is used to prevent wheel lock-up during braking.

The Teves Mark 20e system uses a diagonal split hydraulic brake system. In the standard brake mode the master cylinder primary circuit supplies pressure to the right front and left rear wheel brakes, and the secondary master cylinder circuit supplies pressure to the left front and right rear wheel brakes.

All vehicles equipped with ABS use Electronic Variable Brake Proportioning (EVPB) to balance front-to-rear braking when brakes are applied in the partial braking range.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS) DESCRIPTION (IF EQUIPPED)
The main purpose of traction control is to reduce wheel slip and maintain traction at the driven wheels when road surfaces are slippery. The traction control system reduces wheel slip by braking the wheel that is losing traction. The system is designed to operate at speeds below 56 km/h (35 mph).
