Abstract
An all terrain vehicle may include a braking system comprising a hydraulic and electric controller unit (HECU) operably coupled to the plurality of ground-engaging members. The HECU may receive sensor information from the one or more sensors and determine whether the all terrain vehicle is encountering a wheel locking event based on the sensor information. The wheel locking event may indicate the plurality of ground-engaging members are unable to turn. The HECU also may determine whether the all terrain vehicle is encountering a turning event based on the sensor information and operate in an HECU intervention mode based on an indication that the all terrain vehicle is encountering the wheel locking event and the turning event. The HECU intervention mode permits the HECU to control the plurality of ground-engaging members based on steering input.
