"Braking pressure" refers to the force exerted on the brakes of a vehicle when you press the brake pedal.
Full definition
The system can
apply brake pressure at the correct wheels and correct pressure and even regulate your engine power, all to prevent the accident.
The later balances the amount
of brake pressure applied to each disk depending on cargo load distribution.
This feature utilizes the vehicle stability control system to help assist the driver maintain lane position by applying gentle
brake pressure on the appropriate wheels.
There is emergency brake assist which increases
brake pressure when you stand on the pedal (also activates hazard lights).
Below we will cover the typical steps for replacing the anti-lock
brake pressure switch on most current passenger vehicles.
It can also intervene in the braking process and apply
increased braking pressure according to the situation through to all - out emergency braking, if required.
It holds
brake pressure for a few seconds, allowing you time to switch from the brake pedal to the accelerator.
Other neat features built into the electric AWD vehicle's drivetrain include a system that can vary the torque split between the rear wheel while similarly
adjusting brake pressure up front for better traction.
The system may even
boost brake pressure as the situation demands, even to the point of the maximum braking force that the system is able to provide.
ABS works by automatically
reducing brake pressure if it detects that a wheel is about to stop rotating and then increasing it again after traction is restored.
Use only
light brake pressure where necessary and always engage reverse gear while remaining in low - range four - wheel drive.
This system reads the road conditions and automatically applies the
needed brake pressure to each wheel independently.
The company first developed a hydraulic fill
brake pressure supply unit in the form of an electronic motor - based system.
It also features a hill - assist system that
captures brake pressure to help the driver more comfortably accelerate from a stop on a moderate or steep grade.
Trying to smoothly
decrease braking pressure below 20 mph, however, is met with an inconsistent braking force and within roughly a half - inch of pedal travel.
The brakes are very strong and trustworthy, but the pedal feels wooden and it is difficult to
measure brake pressure finely to start with.
These systems help keep your vehicle on stable ground by
providing brake pressure to wheels that experience slip to send torque to the wheels with the most traction.
This is done by applying a specific amount
of brake pressure and torque to individual wheels.
Should you get too close to the vehicle ahead of you, this system will alert you before
applying brake pressure to help you avoid a collision.
If one of the drive wheels threatens to spin,
specific brake pressure is applied to create the effect of a mechanical differential lock.
The system intuitively, through a combination of sensors, electric servos / motors, and control units, can sense wheel lock up and make corrections in
brake pressure in a fraction of a second.
The Grand Caravan's 4 - wheel ABS automatically
modulates brake pressure when skidding is detected, to help prevent the wheels from locking up.
If necessary, the system automatically applies precise amounts of
brake pressure at individual wheels and reduces engine torque to safely put the vehicle on its intended path.
Also standard is Brake Assist, which helps reduce stopping distance by applying
maximum brake pressure in emergency braking situations.
At that point, the brake system modulator pump increases
braking pressure while the pedal is still being pressed to ensure maximum stopping force, an action that can help shorten braking distance.
EBD adjusts front - to -
rear brake pressure according to vehicle load distribution for optimum brake balance at all times.
When starting on steep inclines from a stop, Hill Start Assist temporarily prevents the vehicle from rolling backwards by maintaining
brake pressure during the moment between releasing the brake, depressing the throttle and engaging the clutch (for a duration of approximately 1.0 second).
The system can further intervene by applying
additional brake pressure if necessary or in the event that the driver fails to take action altogether, the system can automatically apply brakes autonomously to assist with speed reduction.
Under hard braking the active safety system was more conspicuous, continually shifting
brake pressure from left to right and back again as the car threatened to lock up one of the rears.
All TLX models incorporate the Electronic Parking Brake with Automatic Brake Hold, which
retains brake pressure when the vehicle is stopped, simplifying stop - and - go driving in heavy traffic or on steep hills.
Prevents the vehicle from rolling back on a hill by maintaining
brake pressure until the engine delivers enough torque to move the vehicle up the slope, providing improved driver confidence and safety.
Electronic brake - force distribution: Assists the driver to optimize stopping distances and control under all vehicle loading conditions by
regulating braking pressure front - to - rear
The addition of yaw rate sensors and
brake pressure sensors to the Sport ABS system has improved braking performance through corners.
Cause: The electronic switch that senses the amount of
brake pressure which the driver applies to the brake pedal may fail in affected vehicles.
All Accord Hybrid models have hill start assist, which
holds brake pressure when the vehicle is stopped on a hill for a brief period of time, allowing the driver's foot to move from the brake pedal to accelerator without the vehicle moving.
Antilock brakes use Hall effect transducers to detect changes in a car wheel's angular velocity, which can then be used calculate the
appropriate braking pressure on each wheel.
The ABS control module is a microprocessor that runs diagnostic checks of a vehicle's antilock braking system and processes information from wheel - speed sensors and the hydraulic brake system to determine when to
release braking pressure at a wheel that's about to lock up and start skidding.
Your Charger helps maintain stability by reducing engine power and applying
brake pressure if control is lost.
