Method and apparatus for determining solenoid valve failure of brake system

Abstract

According to at least one embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for determining failure of a solenoid valve in a brake system, the method comprising: a first valve operation process of opening a backup valve that controls opening and closing of a flow path disposed between a master cylinder and a pedal cylinder and opening and closing a plurality of valves other than the backup valve in a preset manner; a first determination process of moving a piston disposed in a master cylinder to a preset first position and determining whether the backup valve is in a failure state using a pressure sensor; a second valve operation process of closing a mixing valve that controls opening and closing of a flow path disposed between a front wheel circuit and a rear wheel circuit, and opening and closing the plurality of valves other than the mixing valve in a preset manner; and a second determination process of moving the piston disposed in the master cylinder to a preset second position and determining whether the mixing valve is in a failure state using a pressure sensor.
