Abstract

A vehicle brake system includes a brake actuator, a brake controller operative to control the brake actuator, and at least one position sensor which senses a current position of at least one moveable brake component and provides a current position signal indicative of the current position of the at least one moveable brake component to the brake controller. The brake controller is operative to cause actuation of the brake actuator based at least in part upon a position indicative command received by the brake controller indicative of a commanded position of the at least one moveable brake component and at least in part based upon the current position signal.
