Subaru Outback (BR): Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system
The EBD system maximizes the effectiveness of the brakes by allowing the rear
brakes to supply a greater proportion of the braking force. It functions by adjusting
the distribution of braking force to the rear wheels in accordance with the vehicle’s
loading condition and speed.
The EBD system is an integral part of the ABS system and uses some of the ABS
system’s components to perform its function of optimizing the distribution of braking
force. If any of the ABS components used by the EBD function fails, the EBD system
also stops working.

vibration in the brake pedal. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
