Chevrolet Silverado: Brakes / Electric Brake Boost
Vehicles equipped with electric brake boost have hydraulic brake circuits that
are electronically controlled when the brake pedal is applied during normal operation.
The system performs routine tests and turns off within a few minutes after the vehicle
is shutdown. Noise may be heard during this time. If the brake pedal is pressed
during the tests or when the electric brake boost system is off, a noticeable change
in pedal force and travel may be felt. This is normal.
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) helps prevent a braking skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
ABS performs a system check when the vehicle is first driven...
