Pressure Decrease Mode
During Pressure Decrease mode, the H/U motor pump is energized to produce additional
hydraulic pressure. However, the inlet valve is energized/closed preventing pressure from
increasing in the wheel cylinder/caliper. At the same time, the outlet valve is opened and brake
fluid is allowed to drain from the wheel cylinder/caliper decreasing pressure.

During Pressure Increase mode, the H/U motor pump is energized to produce additional
hydraulic pressure. Since the inlet valve is open and the outlet valve is closed, pressure is
increased in the wheel cylinder/caliper.
