Definitions

These explanations refer only to this

assembly group: Brake system. These
definitions are not necessarily valid
generally.

ABS

The anti-lock brake system (ABS) is a

regulating system in the brake system which
prevents the wheels from locking-up.

ASR (Anti-Slip Regulations)

Further information on this can be found in

the appropriate Self-study program No. 115.

Sender for rotation rate -G202-

The sender for rotation rate recognizes the

rotational movement of the vehicle along the
vertical axis compared with the speed of the
vehicle.

Sender 1 for brake booster/Sensor -2- for

brake pressure -G201-/-G214-

Recognizes the pressure exerted by the

driver and is required to control the pressure
of the pre-pressure system.

Speed sensor

The speed sensor sends the speed signal to

the control module.

ESP (Electronic Stabilization Program)

The ESP recognizes critical vehicle

conditions and stabilizes the vehicle by
braking individual wheels and intervening in
the engine management system. This
occurs independent of brake or accelerator
pedal operations.

A description of the construction and

function of the ESP is found in Self-study
program No. 204.

ESP-Sensor Unit -G419-, vehicles from

my 02.02

The sensor for transverse acceleration -

G200-, the sender for rotation rate -G202-
and the longitudinal acceleration sensor -
G251- (4MOTION vehicles) are assembled
together in a housing.

Steering angle sensor -G85-

Determines the angle and direction of

steering lock (driver's wish). Data is
transferred to control unit via data bus
wiring.

Sensor for transverse acceleration -

G200-

The lateral acceleration sensor is used to

register the speed through curves/bends in
the road and decides which side of the
vehicle the ESP is to brake.

EDL

Electronic Differential Lock. Further

information on this can be found in Self-
study program No 171.
