Anti-Lock Braking System (Abs) Repair Information: Notes

General Information 

The ABS brake system is divided diagonally. The brake booster operates pneumatically via the vacuum brake booster.

Vehicles with ABS Mark 60 do not have a mechanical brake pressure regulator. A specially coordinated software program inside the ABS Control Module -J104- determines the brake pressure allocation for the rear axle.

ABS malfunctions do not affect the brake system and the booster.

The conventional brake system remains operative even without ABS.

A change in braking behavior must be anticipated. When the ABS Warning Lamp -K47- is turned on, the rear wheels may lock prematurely when braking.
