The purpose of the Delco Bosch 5 Antilock Brake System (ABS)
is to minimize wheel slip during heavy braking. The Delco Bosch 5 performs
this function by monitoring the speed of each wheel and controlling the brake
fluid pressure to each wheel independently during a braking event. This allows
the driver to retain directional stability and better steering capability.
The Traction Control System (TCS) also monitors rear wheel speed and
compares the speed to the speed of the front wheel. If excessive front wheel
speed is detected in either front wheels the TCS will be activated. The TCS
uses the following to improved traction and vehicle stability:
