BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1996 Ford Probe AUTOMOBILES
Anti-lock Brakes -> Probe -> Description
Vehicle: 1996 Ford Probe SE 2.0 L4 GAS
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), Figs. and , functions by releasing and applying fluid pressure to the brake calipers during certain braking conditions. During normal driving conditions the system does not function and has no effect on front-to-rear brake proportioning. When one or more wheels approaches a slip condition. The ABS automatically senses the slip and activates the pressure control function.
Through pre-programming, the control unit decides which wheel or wheel's brakes pressures need modulation. The control unit sends appropriate signals to solenoid valves located in t...
