Traction Control and Stability Assist

Anti-Lock Control Anti-Wheelspin Control and Interactive Vehicle Dynamics

The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system includes the:

anti-lock brake system

full speed traction control

yaw control

The DSC system manages the braking systems to enhance the driver control of the vehicle.

The DSC system continually monitors the steering wheel angle, master cylinder brake pressures, front and rear wheel speeds, vehicle yaw rate and lateral acceleration.

The yaw rate sensor supplies an analog signal to the DSC module which monitors the vehicles angular rotation around it's central axis.

The lateral accelerometer also sends an analog signal to the DSC module which monitors the vehicles rate of acceleration from its central axis in a sideways direction.

The driver effected parameters are continually monitored via the brake master cylinder pressure sensors and the steering wheel sensor.

DSC is enabled/disabled via the traction control "ON/OFF" switch.
