Abstract
The extent to which the brake pedal is actuated is detected, and the braking action in the wheel brakes with the greater amount of wear is reduced as a function of this pedal actuation. The reduction in brake pressure takes place primarily in a low range of brake pressures, the amount of reduction decreasing continuously in a middle range of brake pressures, and not taking place at all at high brake pressures.
