Electronic Skid Control System: Description

NOTE: Mobile telephone equipment, citizens band radios, or electronic garage door openers should not affect system operation. Other types of radio transmitting equipment require special installation procedures and should be performed by a qualified radio technician.

System is designed to prevent loss of control during emergency or maximum braking condition. To avoid wheel lock up and resultant skidding with brakes fully applied, system automatically releases and reapplies rear brakes up to four cycles per second. System consists of three major components: Speed sensors, located at transmission; controller, mounted under instrument panel; and modulator, mounted on cowl in engine compartment.
