Brake Pressure Control Valve

The brake pressure control valve proportions the pressure to the rear brakes. When the brake pedal is applied, brake fluid pressure passes through the brake pressure control valve to the rear brake system until the valve split point is reached. Above its split point, the brake pressure control valve begins to reduce the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes, creating a balanced braking condition between the front and rear brakes.
