Abstract
An adaptive braking control circuit and a solenoid valve actuated by the control circuit is protected by a fuse which is blown when a malfunction of the solenoid exists. However, if the voltage produced by the vehicle electrical supply falls below a predtermined level insufficient to actuate the solenoid valve, the adaptive braking control circuit is disabled without blowing the fuse. A control circuit is provided which senses a malfunction in the solenoid, and which generates a fuse blowing signal which is used to actuate a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) in order to blow the fuse. However, under the low voltage condition, this fuse blowing signal is inhibited.
