Braking System” offers comprehensive coverage of modern braking technology, designed to guide the technician from hydraulic fundamentals to advanced electronic diagnostics and service.

Key Topics Covered:

• Core Principles & Hydraulics: Fundamentals of friction, heat dissipation, and the complete hydraulic circuit (master cylinders, lines, calipers, and brake fluid types).
• Friction Components: In-depth analysis of brake pads, shoes, rotors, and drums, focusing on material selection, wear patterns, and failure diagnosis.
• Electronic Control Systems: Detailed breakdown of Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control (TCS), and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD).
• Modern & Auxiliary Systems: Operation and service of Electronic Parking Brakes (EPB), Brake Assist (BA), and integrated brake-by-wire systems.
• Diagnostics & Service: Systematic methodology for diagnosing hydraulic faults (spongy pedal, pulling), interpreting electronic fault codes (ABS/ESC lights), and performing critical service procedures (brake bleeding, component replacement, EPB service modes).
