offending brake
"In antilock brake systems (ABS), wheel-speed sensors tell an electronic control unit when one wheel is not decelerating at the same rate as the others under braking. The control unit then directs a sophisticated hydraulic pump to ease the pressure to the offending brake to prevent that wheel from skidding"
Hi, I've trouble understanding the blue part. ease the pressure, decrease pressure? Does it mean to reduce pressure on the brake? What is an offending brake?
Thank you!
