APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROL OF A HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM

A brake system for hydraulically actuating a pair of front wheel brakes and a pair of rear wheel brakes includes a master cylinder fluidly connected to a reservoir and operable to provide a brake signal responsive to actuation of a brake pedal connected thereto. The master cylinder is selectively operable during a manual push-through mode by actuation of the brake pedal to generate brake actuating pressure at an output for hydraulically actuating a selected one of the pair of front and rear wheel brakes. A first power transmission unit is configured for actuating the selected one of the pair of front and rear wheel brakes. A second power transmission unit is configured for actuating the other one of the pair of front and rear wheel brakes. A first electronic control unit is provided for controlling at least one of the first and second power transmission units.
