The electronic brake distribution (EBD) is a control system that replaces the hydraulic proportioning function of the mechanical proportioning valve in the base brake system. The EBD control system is part of the operation software in the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The EBD uses active control with existing antilock brake system (ABS) in order to regulate the vehicle rear brake pressure.
