Abstract
Self-suction pumps are driven to take in brake fluid from a master-cylinder side before performing brake TRC control when at a low temperature and moreover when a vehicle is stopped. During driving of these self-suction pumps, pressure-increasing control valves and pressure-reducing control valves are both opened and brake fluid is accumulated in reservoirs. Because of this, an amount of pump discharge employed in brake TRC control when at a low temperature is assured, and responsiveness of brake TRC control is enhanced.
