Antilock Brake System With Electronic Stability Program (ESP)

WITH ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL

NOTE: The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) may also be referred to as Electronic Stability Program (ESP) depending on the vehicle model year and configuration. Certain components may also reference ESP, ESC, or use the traction control symbol.





This vehicle uses the Continental Teves MK25e electronic brake control system. The system includes Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Variable Brake Proportioning (EVBP), Traction Control System (TCS), Brake Assist System (BAS), Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM), and ESC. All six systems work together to enhance vehicle stability and control in various driving conditions and are commonly referred to as ESC.

The electronic brake control system uses the following components to operate:

- Integrated Control Unit (ICU) - The ICU is a combination of the Antilock Brake Module (ABM) and the Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) (4)
- Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS) - Four sensors (one at each wheel)
- Dynamics Sensor - The Dynamics Sensor includes a yaw rate sensor, (The Dynamics Sensor is located under the center console near the center of the vehicle).
- lateral accelerometer and, on 4x4 vehicles with a low range transfer case (245 T-Case), a longitudinal accelerometer.
- Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) - The SAS is part of the clock spring assembly in the steering column.
- Brake Pressure Sensor - The brake pressure sensor is located in the HCU and is not serviceable separate.
