APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM INCLUDING MANUAL PUSH-THROUGH

A brake system for hydraulically actuating a pair of front wheel brakes and a pair of rear wheel brakes includes a reservoir and a master cylinder fluidly connected to the reservoir and operable to provide a brake signal. A first power transmission unit is in fluid communication with the reservoir, a selected one of the rear wheel brakes, and a first fluid separator corresponding to a selected one of the front wheel brakes. A first electronic control unit is configured to control the first power transmission unit. A second power transmission unit is in fluid communication with the reservoir, the other one of the front wheel brakes, and a second fluid separator corresponding to an other one of the front wheel brakes. A second electronic control unit is configured to control the second power transmission unit.
