Abstract

A brake system for a motor vehicle includes a first control module coupled to a first hydraulic brake circuit and a second hydraulic brake circuit. The first control module is configured to control fluid pressure within both the first hydraulic brake circuit and the second hydraulic brake circuit. A second control module coupled to the first hydraulic brake circuit and the second hydraulic brake circuit, wherein the second control module is configured to control fluid pressure within both the first hydraulic brake circuit and the second hydraulic brake circuit independent of the first control module. The first control module is disposed in series with the second control module in the first hydraulic brake circuit and the second hydraulic brake circuit.
