ABS Operation

If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the ABS controls the hydraulic pressure of the brake cylinders on all four of the wheels to automatically prevent the wheels from locking and to ensure the directional and steering stability of the vehicle. Under the situation, the skid control ECU controls the solenoids in the actuators, using the signals from the sensors to move the brake fluid to the reservoir in order to release the braking pressure applied to the wheel cylinders. Also, if the skid control ECU detects that the fluid pressure in the wheel cylinder is insufficient, the ECU controls the solenoids in the actuators to increase the braking pressure.
