Why does the brake pedal automatically rebound when pressed all the way down?
1 Answers
The reasons for the brake pedal automatically rebounding when pressed all the way down: 1. ABS is functioning: When pressed hard, the brake pedal rebounds and jumps, indicating that the ABS is functioning during emergency braking. 2. The origin of the ABS anti-lock braking system: In emergency situations, drivers press the brake pedal all the way down to adjust the speed and prevent danger. However, when the braking system suddenly locks the brakes, it may cause the vehicle to lose lateral control, and continuously pressing the brake pedal all the way down is not truly and very effective in quickly reducing speed. Hence, the anti-lock braking system was developed. 3. The specific function of the ABS anti-lock braking system: When the driver presses the brake pedal all the way down forcefully, the sensing device will alternately open and close the brake fluid circuit to prevent the tires from locking up and causing lateral deviation. At the same time, it also enhances the most effective and safe stopping in the shortest distance. Therefore, the brake pedal jumps due to the rapid closing and opening of the fluid circuit, which is a normal phenomenon.
