Reduced brake switch dependence control method and system for vehicle anti-lock brake system

摘要

A reduced brake switch dependence (RBSD) control method and system for a vehicle anti-lock brake system (ABS) having a brake switch. The control method includes generating a RBSD control signal when the brake switch is inoperative, and performing RBSD control of the ABS in response to the RBSD control signal. The control system includes wheel speed sensors, ABS control valves, and a programmable microprocessor ABS control unit for performing the control method.
