BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1996 MERCEDES-BENZ E300D AUTOMOBILES
Includes anti-lock brakes, disc, drum, power and hydraulic brake services diagnostics and procedures for domestic and imported 1996 MERCEDES-BENZ E300D cars and light trucks from 1990+.
Anti-lock Brakes -> Description -> Components -> Electronic Control Unit -> System -> Wheel Speed Sensors
Vehicle: 1996 MERCEDES-BENZ E300D 3.0 L6 DIESEL
System
Four-wheel ABS uses a control unit, hydraulic actuator and wheel speed sensors to control brake fluid pressure and prevent wheel lock during severe braking conditions,
Basic ABS components are supplemented by an expanded hydraulic unit, a charging pump, a fourth wheel speed sensor and a more comprehensive electronic system for Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR) and Electronic Traction System (ETS).
Integrated with ABS and traction control systems, Electronic Stability Program (ESP) detects slides and applies brake pressure to individual wheels to help maintain control.
