Abstract
A vehicular anti-skid control apparatus comprises a differential pressure detector for detecting the pressure difference inside brake lines of separate brake channels, a brake failure detector for detecting failure in one of the brake channels based on the anti-skid control state of each brake channel, a brake failure evaluator for evaluating failure of the brake system based on both output signals of the differential pressure detector and brake failure detector wherein the anti-skid control method is changed from normal anti-skid control to a particular anti-skid control when a brake failure occurs.
