Ing adverse conditions. It automatically adjusts brake system hydraulic pressure at each wheel to prevent wheel lock-up. The system's main components arethe wheel speed (pulse) sensors, the ABS control module, and the hydraulic control unit.

Warning lamp u Master Whee l speed I-lydraulic cylinder sensor control unit 0012135 UNI The wheel speed sensors continuously send wheel speed signals to the control module. The control module compares these signals to determine, in fractions of a second, whether any of the wheels areabout to lock. If any wheel is nearing a lock-up condition, the module signals the hydraulic unit to maintain or reduce pressure at the appropriatewheel(s). Pressure is modulated by electrically-operated sole- noid valves in the hydraulic unit. ABS wheelspeed sensor. 0006563 INTEGRATED SYSTEMS.

Be sure to have the right tools onhand before beginning any job. ' Do notreuse self-locking nuts or bolts. They are designed to beused only once and may fail if re- used.

Always replace self-locking fasteners any timethey are loosenedor removed. ' Do not install bolts and nuts coated with under- coating wax, as the correct tightening torque can- not beassured. Always clean the threads with solventbefore installation, or install new parts. ' Do not attempt to weld or straighten any suspen- sion components. Replace damaged parts.
