  • Question
  • The function of a proportioning control valve (PCV) in a brake system is to


  • Options
  • A. ensure that equal pressure is supplied to the front and rear brakes throughout every braking operation
  • B. reduce the brake fluid pressure when the brakes approach their lockup point
  • C. cause less brake fluid pressure to act on the front brakes than on the rear brakes when the fluid pressure exceeds a predetermined level
  • D. cause less brake fluid pressure to act on the rear brakes than on the front brakes when the fluid pressure exceeds a predetermined level.

  • Correct Answer
  • cause less brake fluid pressure to act on the rear brakes than on the front brakes when the fluid pressure exceeds a predetermined level.
