The ABS control module controls the two EPB actuators separately. An inclination sensor and a gravity (G) sensor are integrated into the Restraints Control Module (RCM) which communicates with ABS module in the HS CAN Chassis systems Bus. The inclination sensor allows the ABS control module to determine the longitudinal attitude of the vehicle. The G sensor allows the ABS control module to monitor the vehicle's deceleration.
Four hardwired connections with the EPB switch give the ABS control module the EPB apply and EPB release inputs. The EBP is integrated into ABS control module so the wheel speed sensors are also hard wired. Inputs from other components are received on the HS CAN as follows:
- Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensor, from the ECM
- Stop lamp switch, from the ECM
- Clutch pedal position sensor, from the ECM
- Reverse gear switch, from the BCM/GWM (Body Control Module/Gateway Control Module) (manual transmission vehicles only)
- Gear position, from the Transmission Control Module (TCM) (automatic transmission vehicles only)
- 1st gear switch, from the ECM (manual transmission vehicles only)
In addition to the hardwired outputs to the EPB actuators, the ABS control module outputs status and fault signals on the HS CAN operate the warning indicators and they advise other systems if there is a fault with the EPB system.
