Opel Insignia OPC - Repair abs pump

Understanding the principle of the ABS block

The ABS block, what is it?

For the record, anti-lock brakes have been around since 1920 in the airline industry to prevent planes from skidding on landing. The acronym ABS comes from the German "Antiblockiersystem". It is an anti-lock wheel system that helps keep the vehicle under control when sudden braking occurs.

Focus on the ABS system

The ABS block is a part of the overall ABS system. We can observe for the Opel Insignia OPC model ...

• Magnetic targets: they vary the output signal, which is in the form of a square signal of variable frequency.
• The ABS block: more details below.
• Wheel speed sensors: we can observe 2 types, namely active sensors that are fed by the ABS ECU through a cable and passive sensors.

The ABS block

Let's look at some of the elements of the ABS block due to car manufacturer Opel Insignia OPC:

The hydraulic motor

It uses the flow of oil that is pushed into the hydraulic circuit by a hydraulic pump and transforms it by a rotary motion to drive another device such as the gearbox or fan, etc.

The ECU

As soon as an impeller tends to lock, it controls the solenoid valves and hydraulic pump.

The hydraulic unit

• Pressure accumulators which are nothing but pressurized gas tanks that can hold a variable volume of pressurized liquid.
• Solenoid valves that regulate the braking pressure for each wheel.
• The electronic brake distributor, which has a complementary role managed by the ECU.
