INTEGRATED CONTROL UNIT (ICU)
DESCRIPTION
The Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) (2) and the Antilock
Brake Module (ABM) (1) used with this antilock brake
system are combined (integrated) into one unit, which
is called the Integrated Control Unit (ICU).
The ICU (1) is located in the engine compartment,
mounted to the right side body frame rail near the
strut tower.
Two different ICU’s are used on this vehicle depending on whether or not the vehicle is equipped with traction con-
trol and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The HCU on a vehicle equipped with traction control or ESP has a valve
block that is approximately one inch longer than a HCU on a vehicle that is equipped with ABS only.
The ABS-only ICU consists of the following components: the ABM, eight (build/decay) solenoid valves (four inlet
valves and four outlet valves), valve block, fluid accumulators, a pump, and an electric motor.
The ABS with ESP and All-Speed Traction Control ICU consists of the following components: the ABM, 12 (build/
decay) solenoid valves, two traction control solenoid valves, two hydraulic shuttle valves, valve block, fluid accumu-
lators, a pump, and an electric pump/motor.
The replaceable components of the ICU are the HCU and the ABM. No attempt should be made to service any
components of the HCU or ABM.
For additional information on the ABM, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/ANTILOCK
BRAKE MODULE - DESCRIPTION). For additional information on the HCU, (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - ABS/HYDRAU-
LIC/MECHANICAL/HCU (HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT) - DESCRIPTION).
