DRIVE
July 25, 2019
A brake system having a wheel brake and being operable under a non-failure normal braking mode and a manual push-through mode. The system includes a master cylinder operable by a brake pedal during the manual push-through mode to provide fluid flow at an output for actuating the wheel brake. A first source of pressurized fluid provides fluid pressure for actuating the wheel brake under the normal braking mode. A second source of pressurized fluid generates brake actuating pressure for actuating the wheel brake under the manual push-through mode.
