General Description

The purpose of the DBC 7 Antilock Brake System (ABS) is to minimize wheel slip during heavy braking. The DBC 7 performs this function by monitoring the speed of each wheel and controlling the brake fluid pressure to each wheel independently during a braking event. This allows the driver to retain directional stability and better steering capability.
The Traction Control System (if equipped) also monitors front wheel speed and compares the speed to the speed of the rear wheels. If excessive front wheel speed is detected in either front wheels, the TCS will be activated. The TCS uses the following to improve traction and vehicle stability:
^ Timing control
^ Fuel control
^ Front brake intervention.
