Vehicle: 1997 Chrysler LHS 3.5 V6 GAS
System Operation
Under normal braking conditions, the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) functions as a standard brake system with a diagonally split master cylinder and conventional brake booster.
If a wheel lock is detected during braking, the system will enter ABS mode. During ABS mode, hydraulic pressure in the four wheel circuits is modulated to prevent any wheel from locking.
Each wheel circuit has a set of electrical valves to provide modulation to each wheel. Front wheels receive separate signals and rear wheels receive the same signal.
Fault Diagnostic System

Power Brake Units -> Description -> Operation -> System
Vehicle: 1997 Chrysler LHS 3.5 V6 GAS
System
These units are of the vacuum suspended type. Some units are of the single diaphragm type, Fig. , while others are of the tandem diaphragm type, Fig. . Both single piston and double piston or split system type master cylinders are used.
The vacuum suspended diaphragm type units utilize engine manifold vacuum and atmospheric pressure for its power. It consists of three basic elements combined into a single power unit. The three basic elements of the single diaphragm type are:
- A vacuum power section which includes a front and rear shell, a power diaphragm, a return spring and a pu...
