Parking brake – general information
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
The ABS system helps to improve vehicle
control (stopping and steering) during severe
braking conditions by limiting brake lockup.
When the system "senses" impending lockup,
braking pressure is automatically modulated
in order to help prevent lockup that could
lead to a skid.
The system performs a brief self-diagnostic
test when the engine has been started and
driver releases the brake pedal. Another auto-
matic test may be performed when the vehi-
cle first reaches a speed of approximately
6 mph (10 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate
several times and a sound may be audible
from the ABS control module, which is nor-
mal.
