1. ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM OUTLINE

The electronic brake control system improves the driving stability by satisfying the braking performance, starting performance and turning performance at the same time. These performances can be obtained by each function of ABS, TCS, EBD and VDC. These systems are related to each other as shown in the figure below. You will study these systems to understand what kind of control is performed by each system.

2. ABS (ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM)

1) ABS Outline The vehicle becomes unstable if the wheels lock when braking on a slippery road. Moreover, the braking distance will become longer. The ABS controls the braking force (wheel cylinder fluid pressure) electronically detecting wheel rotation while braking and avoids the locking of each wheel. Thus, the vehicle stability while fully braking and the turning performance while braking are increased. The ABS system consists of electronic and hydraulic units and components.

FUNCTION AND EFFECT OF ABS 1) To ensure the proper steering operation while braking 2) To be able to turn away from obstacles because the steering is secured 3) To ensure the vehicle stability by preventing flat spins

2) ABS Operation

ABS is designed to control brake fluid pressure so that the wheels are prevented from locking during abrupt braking. More specifically, adequate control of brake fluid pressure maintains the optimum “slip” ratio between the wheels and road surface, thus stopping the vehicle firmly and quickly.

When full braking is applied, the wheel speed becomes lower than the vehicle speed resulting in slippage between the tires and road surface. The amount of slippage is shown as the red shaded area in the figure on the right. The ABS controls the brake fluid pressure to minimize the slippage in order to prevent the vehicle from losing driving control due to wheel locking. This slippage is called the slip ratio. Slip ratio= (Vehicle speed – Wheel speed) /Vehicle speed The slip ratio is controlled by the ABS to maintain the optimum condition (0.15 - 0.30).

The maximum braking performance can be obtained when the slip ratio is controlled to be around these figures.

The operation of the ABS is explained in the e-Learning program provided here.

3. EBD (ELECTRONIC BRAKE-FORCE DISTRIBUTION)

1) EBD Outline

EBD is adopted into the ABS system in order to keep the brake performance stable (regardless of the loading condition of the vehicle). Its function is to control the braking force distribution to the front and rear electrically according to the loading condition. When the load distribution on rear wheel side increases, it divides brake force ideally according to the skid ratio difference of the tires between the front and rear. A load sensing valve (LSV) and a proportioning valve (P-valve) control the fluid pressure of the rear brake mechanically. Instead of these systems, EBD logic is built into the ABS system, and it operates the brake force ideally.

The load sensing valve (LSV) mechanically controls the rear brake force depending on the weight of the load. EBD works the same as LSV operation, but it does not sense the load on the vehicle. EBD monitors the front and rear wheel skid ratio by using ABS components. The EBD does not have any components, but its logic is built into the ABS system. The rear brake force is controlled on demand electrically and ideally. As a result, the system provides better brake effect for any vehicle weight.

2) EBD Operation The EBD monitors the difference of front wheel skid and rear wheel skid. When the difference becomes greater than a certain specification, EBD holds the rear brake fluid pressure to increase in order to make the front and rear wheel skid become equal. And after the difference is returned to the specification, EBD allows for increasing the rear brake fluid pressure again. The figure on the right shows how EBD works and ABS valve operates. When the difference of the front wheel skid and rear wheel's one exceeds EBD control threshold, the inlet valve of ABS will close and hold the brake pressure that applies. After the difference is returned into the EBD control threshold, the inlet valve of ABS opens and allows the fluid pressure to apply to the rear wheel cylinder.

The operation of the EBD is explained in the e-Learning program provided here.

4. TCS (TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM)

1) TCS Outline On a road surface that is easy to cause slippage, a decrease in driving stability due to tail spin or unsatisfactory acceleration due to driving wheel spin occurs when starting or during sudden acceleration. The TCS controls the engine torque and brake force of the driving wheels using the various devices that are electronically controlled. As a result, the TCS prevents the driving wheels from spinning to increase the starting and acceleration performance and the driving stability and safety. 2) TCS Operation 1. Taking the average speed of the front

wheels as a base (1), the wheel speed of the rear (driving) wheels (2) is continuously monitored and compared.

2. The driver opens the throttle (3) and the speed of the rear wheels increases as a result. When the wheel speed exceeds the preset TCS ON threshold, the TCS turns itself ON. The secondary throttle (4) closes as the rear brake oil pressure is increased (5).

3. When the rear wheel speed decreases to a level between the thresholds of TCS ON and TCS OFF, the throttle position and the brake oil pressure level are maintained.

4. Finally, when the rear wheel speed drops below the TCS OFF threshold, the system switches itself OFF, opening the throttle and decreasing the brake oil pressure.

5. Until all tendencies have completely disappeared, steps 2 through 4 are repeated. The TCS function is explained in the e-Learning program provided here.

5. VDC (VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL)

1) VDC Outline The VDC automatically improves the driving stability by controlling the braking force of the four wheels respectively and the engine output while avoiding obstacles. The system is operated by the controlling function according to the deviation of the calculated side skid from the target while steering. 2) VDC Operation The control unit calculates the actual status of the vehicle during cornering based on the steering angle, yaw rate, deceleration, vehicle speed, etc. If the vehicle is in the oversteer/understeer status, VDC applies the brake force to the 4 wheels respectively to prevent these statuses. The VDC function is explained in the e-Learning program provided here.

OUTLINE OF OPERATION FLOW VDC compares the actual slip angle of the vehicle and the target slip angle that is calculated by the control unit based on the steering angle signal and brake pressure signal that are controlled by the driver. Then, it controls the brake force and engine output torque to obtain the target slip angle.

The figure on the right shows the VDC operation. The situation is: A vehicle is in oversteer during a left turn while accelerating. When the actual slip angle deviates from the target value, the system applies the brake force and reduces the engine output torque.

sensor rotor, downsizing and weight reduction are promoted.

• Power is supplied to the detector circuit to read out magnetic flux. Magnetic force is detected electrically, and it is and converted to a current signal.

• As the sensor rotor rotates, the magnetic field changes. Changes in the magnetic field are converted to current signals (square wave signal). Signals are sent to the ABS control unit. Changes in the magnetic field are proportional to the wheel rotation speed.

The circuit in the wheel rotation sensor of an active sensor type may be damaged if a multi-tester is used to measure the resistance. Use CONSULT-ll for examination to check whether the sensor is OK or NG.

ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit)

PASSIVE SENSOR (N16, A33, ETC.) The sensor unit consists of a gear-shaped sensor rotor and a sensor element. The element contains a bar magnet around which a coil is wound. The sensor is installed on the back side of the brake rotor. Sine wave current is generated by the sensor as the wheel rotates. The frequency and voltage increase(s) as the rotating speed increases.

Use the AC range to measure the sensor output.

3) Control Module The ABS actuator and control unit are integrated. The vehicle with VDC/TCS/ABS controls each function of VDC/TCS/ABS synthetically. The vehicle with the EBD function is equipped with the built-in EBD control function. The control unit receives a signal sent from each wheel speed sensor, computes wheel speed, etc. and sends a signal to the actuator which controls (decreases, increases and maintains) the brake fluid pressure in the wheel cylinders so that the wheels do not lock. 4) Yaw rate/side G-sensor (Vehicle with VDC) The sensor detects the yaw rate/lateral G/longitudinal G of the vehicle and sends the analog voltage signal to the ABS actuator control unit.

5) G-sensor (Vehicle with 4WD) The G-sensor senses deceleration during braking to determine whether the vehicle is being driven on a high µ* road (asphalt road, etc.) or a low µ* road (snow-covered road, etc.). It then sends a signal to the ABS control unit. µ* (mju:): Symbol that stands for the friction coefficient. The reed switch turns on when it is affected by a magnetic field. During sudden deceleration (braking on a high µ road), the weight moves and the magnet in the weight moves away from the reed switch. The magnetic field then diminishes, and the reed switch turns OFF.

STEP 2 CHA BRTN0202AJ

2) Confirm Precautions and For Correct and Quick Diagnosis Check the items below before performing trouble diagnosis. Be careful that the customers do not misunderstand a normal operation to be an incident. 1. Motor operating sound During ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and

a mechanical noise may be heard. This is normal. 2. Sound of system operation

check Just after starting vehicle after ignition switch is turned ON, the brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may be heard from the engine compartment. This is a normal status of the operation check.

3. Braking distance of ABS Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.

4. Improper tire size Improper brake pads

If the tire size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts, the stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.

5. During sudden acceleration or abrupt steering

When the TCS or VDC is activated by sudden acceleration or a sudden turn, some noise may occur. The noise is a result of the normal operation of the TCS and VDC.

6. Driving on steep hill or bank When driving on roads that have extreme slopes (such as mountainous roads) or high banks (such as sharp curves on a freeway), the VDC may not operate normally, or the VDC OFF indicator lamp and the SLIP indicator lamp may turn ON. However, this is not a problem if normal operation can be resumed after restarting the engine.

It is important to obtain detailed information about the occurrence of the incident at the time of reception because it may be resolved by an explanation of the items above. 3) Perform Preliminary Check 1) Check the quantity of brake fluid, brake fluid leakage and brake pads. 2) Check loosening of electric terminal and battery. 3) Check ABS warning lamp, brake warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator and SLIP indicator.

Check the items above.
