Functional description

The ABS electronic control unit M50 is supplied (at pins 2 and 6) directly by the battery via the line protected by ABS maxifuse B5. The ignition-operated supply (INT/A) reaches pin 23 from the line protected by the fuse F42 of under facia control unit B2 . The control unit is earthed via pins 1 and 5. The four sensors K70, K71, K75, K76 send wheel speed signals to pins 28-12, 15-16, 13-14 and 30-31 of M50 respectively. Brake pedal switch I30 sends an enablement signal to pin 32 of control unit M50 : the ABS cannot intervene unless the brake pedal is pressed. The switch I30 is supplied when the ignition is switched on (INT) from fuse F37 of junction unit B2 . The 'ASR OFF' control button on panel H35 sends a deactivation signal to pin 27 of M50 , while pin 18 viene relays a signal that turns on a led on panel H35 when the system is off. Pin 37 di M50 emits a discrete speed signal that is sent tol Body Computer M1 ; the same signal is also copied via the CAN network. Steering sensor K58 is supplied by ABS control unit M50 at pin 39 and receives a reference earth from pin 21: the signal that detects sudden changes in steering direction is sent via the CAN line to engine control unit M1 and ABS control unit M50 . Yaw sensor K74 is supplied from ABS control unit M50 at pin 39, while it receives a reference earth from pin 21: control and command signals are exchanged with ABS control unit M50 , at pins 8, 9, 10 and 41. Pressure sensor K72 is supplied from ABS control unit M50 at pin 42, while it receives a reference earth from pin 25: the pressure detection signal is sent to pin 26 of ABS control unit M50 . Pins 24 and 40 of ABS control unit M50 connect to Body Computer M1 and instrument panel E50 to control the ABS warning light and - if the problem lies in the EBD function - the low brake fluid level and handbrake warning lights. The VDC and ASR functions manage the relevant warning light as described previously. Self-diagnostic data can be read by connecting to connector G of Body Computer M1 - pin 1: it receives signals from pin 11 of control unit M50 via a special diagnostic line.
