3239513 - E7020 ABS - Functional description

Functional description

ABS electronic control unit M50 is supplied (at pins 17 and 18) directly by the battery via a line protected by the ABS maxifuse of B6 up to 2/99 or by ABS maxifuse located directly on the battery A1 - connector C from 2/99. The supply controlled by the ignition (15/54) reaches pin 15 from the line protected by shunt fuse B30 up to 3/98) or by B31 from 3/98 to 2/99 or from fuse F6 from supplementary fuse box B98A from 2/99. The control unit is earthed via pins 19 and 16. The four sensors K70 , K71 , K75 , K76 send wheel speed signals to pins 6-7, 4-5, 8-9 and 1-2 of M50 respectively. Brake pedal switch I30 sends an enablement signal to pin 14 of control unit M50 : the ABS cannot intervene unless the brake pedal is pressed. If the control unit M50 detects problems relating to the ABS function, it sends the instrument panel E50 a signal, from pin 4, which lights up the "ABS failure" warning light; if the problems concern the EBD function, the handbrake warning light is lit up from pin 21. Pin 22 of M50 produces a speedometer signal (average speed of all four wheels) which is sent to the instrument panel E10 . (  See E4021  SPEEDOMETER ). The ABS includes an autodiagnostic system: when the control unit detects problems relating to the ABS function it sends a signal from pin 20 to the check instrument E30 which contains the "ABS failure" warning light. If the problems involve the EBD function, the control unit also sends a signal from pin 21 to instrument E30 to the "insufficient brake fluid level" and "handbrake applied" warning light. These are earth signals and cause the warning lights to come on because the supply for instrument E30 is controlled by the ignition (INT) from the line protected by the controls light fuse B11 up to 2/99 or from fuse F4 of supplementary fuse box B98B from 2/99. The autodiagnostic data can be read by connecting to connector R10 : it receives signals from pin 11 of the control unit M50 via the special diagnostic line.
