Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) uses input from the brake master cylinder piston position sensor and the brake switch to determine when the brake pedal is being applied and with how much force. These inputs are used to determine the driver's braking intent which is used to the control amount of pressure applied to the wheels.
