ABSTRACT:
A brake system includes a piston for applying an output force to a brake, a motor operatively connected to the piston and a controller receiving a braking request and sending a brake force signal commanding a level of brake force to the motor to cause the motor to move the piston and apply an output force to the brake. When the brake force signal remains at a first level for a given period of time, the controller automatically decreases, or increases and then decreases, the level of the brake force signal from a first value. Also a method of controlling such a brake system.
