Component Location





General Description

The BTCS (Brake Traction Control System) is operated when the wheel acceleration and the speed difference exceed the specified value under lower than 50 Km/h (31 MPH). The HECU calculates the wheel disc's temperature logically, which is an assumed value, by using the value of wheel speed, vehicle speed change, control mode and brake light signal. The calculated disc's temperature is used to protect disc from overheating, which is mainly caused by long-time operation.

DTC Description

The HECU calculates a disc's temperature for a normal operation and if the calculated disc's temperature is over 500 °C (932 °F), this DTC is set.
