Anti-Lock Brakes -> Kelsey-Hayes -> Description
Vehicle: 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 LS 5.3 V8 FLEX

A separate hydraulic line and specific solenoid valves are provided for each wheel. The ABS can decrease, hold, or increase hydraulic pressure to each wheel brake. The ABS cannot, however, increase hydraulic pressure above the amount which is transmitted by the master cylinder during braking.

During anti-lock braking, a series of rapid pulsations is felt in the brake pedal...
