Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method of line-locking a hydraulic vehicle braking system, comprising:
- receiving an electric signal related to a driver request;
performing a preliminary system check of a system condition;
monitoring the system condition, driver request or a vehicle condition; and
controlling the distribution of fluid between a hydraulic module and a wheel braking component according to the system condition, driver request or vehicle condition.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to various computer-implemented methods of line-locking a hydraulic vehicle braking system. A method includes performing a preliminary system check and controlling the distribution of fluid between a hydraulic module and an individual wheel-end brake component when the preliminary check is satisfied. The system continues to monitor predetermined vehicle inputs during activation.
