On Vehicles Equipped With Anti-Lock Brakes Refer To "Anti-Lock Brakes".
Complaints about power brake operation should be handled as if two separate systems exist. Inspect for faults in the hydraulic system first. If it is satisfactory, start inspecting the power brake circuit. For a quick inspection of proper power unit operation, press the brake pedal firmly and then start the engine. The pedal should fall away slightly and less pressure should be needed to maintain the pedal in any position.
Another inspection begins with installation of a suitable pressure gauge in the brake hydr...

System
These models are equipped with a four wheel anti-lock brake system (ABS), The system prevents lock-up by automatically modulating brake system pressure during an emergency stop situation.
By controlling wheel lock-up, the vehicle's operator can maintain steering control and stop the vehicle in the shortest possible distance, under most driving conditions.
The ABS system controls the front brakes separately and the rear brakes as a pair whenever wheel lock-up begins. The brake pedal application force required to engage the system function may vary with road surface conditions. A ...

Brake System Bleed
The master cylinder and hydraulic control unit must be bled using ABS test adapter tool No. T90P-50-ALA, or equivalent. If this procedure is not followed, air will be trapped in the hydraulic control unit which will eventually lead to a spongy brake pedal.
To bleed the master cylinder and HCU, disconnect the 55-pin plug from the ABS module and install the ABS test adapter to the wire harness 55-pin plug.
- Place bleed/harness switch in bleed position.

This system operates on the same principles as conventional front and rear split systems using primary and secondary master cylinders moving simultaneously to exert hydraulic pressure on their respective systems, Fig. .
The hydraulic brake lines on this system, however, have been diagonally split front to rear (left front to right rear and right front to left rear) in place of separate lines to the front and rear wheels.
In the event of a system failure this would cause the remaining good system to do all the braking on one front wheel and the opposite rear wheel, thus maintaining 50%...
