3315748 - E7020 ABS - Functional description (VDC)

Functional description

The ABS electronic control unit M50 is supplied directly by the battery at pin 6 from the line protected by ABS maxifuse B7, and at pin 2 from the line protected by maxifuse B34 . The ignition-operated supply (INT/A) reaches pin 23 from the line protected by the fuse B31 . The control unit is earthed via pins 5 and 1. The four sensors K70, K71, K75, K76 send the wheel speed sensors to pins 12-28, 15-16, 13-14 and 30-31 of M50 respectively. The brake pedal switch l30 is supplied when the ignition is switched on by two specific lines, protected by fuses F5 and F1 of the junction unit B1 . The switch l30 indicates to the control unit M50 its operating state: if the pedal is pressed, the control unit M50 receives the signal at pin 37, whereas with the pedal pressed, the signal reaches pin 32. Pin 33 of M50 produces a speedometer signal (average speed of all four wheels) which is directed to instrument panel E50 - pin 2 of connector B (  See E4010  INSTRUMENT PANEL ). The ABS includes a self-diagnostic system: when the control unit detects problems with the ABS, it sends a signal from pin 20 of instrument E50 - pin 18 of connector C - which turns on the ABS fault warning light. This warning light is managed by the processor in the instrument panel E50 , which receives and processes the signal coming from the control unit M50 . If the problems line in the EBD function, the control unit also sends a signal from pin 17 and 38 of the instrument panl E50 - pins 10 and 19 of connector C - to the low brake fluid and handbrake warning light ( See E4010 INSTRUMENT PANEL ). Both the signals sent to the instrument are earth signals, and they make the warning lights come on, as the instrument panel E50 is ignition activated (INT/A) from the line protected by fuse F1 of the junction unit B1 . The self-test data can be read by connecting to pin 1 of connector R10 : it receives signals from pin 11 of the control unit M50 via the specific diagnostic line.
