A brake system for a vehicle comprises a braking control unit comprising a first electronic control unit (ECU), a second ECU, and an actuator in communication with the first ECU and the second ECU. The ECUs each receive identical braking signals. On receiving a braking signal, the first ECU causes an actuator to activate a plunger to apply pressure to brake fluid in a hydraulic braking system, causing friction brakes to decelerate road wheels. The second ECU is configured to determine whether the first ECU is in a failure state. If the first ECU is in a failure state, the second ECU causes the actuator to activate a plunger to apply pressure to brake fluid in a hydraulic braking system, causing friction brakes to decelerate road wheels. The actuator and ECUs are disposed within a single unit.
