ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM FUNCTION [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)]


id0402b2175100


Malfunction detection function

•  The malfunction detection function detects and displays malfunctions in the input/output signal system of the DSC HU/CM when the ignition switch is at the ON position.
•  When the DSC HU/CM is activated, the following malfunction detection is performed.
―  The ABS and brake system warning lights, DSC indicator lights and DSC OFF light illuminate for approx. 3 s when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. At the same time, the fail-safe relay is operated, and the input/output signals of each part is monitored for malfunction diagnosis. After starting to drive, the first time the vehicle speed is approx. 10 km/h {6.2 mph} or more the pump motor is operated and malfunction diagnosis is performed again. Input/output signals are monitored for malfunction determination when the ignition is switched to ON.
•  If the above malfunctions are detected, the corresponding lights are illuminated to alert the driver. DTCs can be output through the CAN_H and CAN_L of the DLC-2 using the external tester communication function. At the same time, malfunction detection results are sent to the memory and fail-safe functions.

Memory function

•  The memory function stores DTCs of malfunctions in input/output signal systems. With this function, once a DTC is stored it is not cleared after the ignition switch has been turned LOCK position, even if the malfunctioning signal system has returned to normal.
•  Since the DSC HU/CM has a built-in non-volatile memory, DTCs are not cleared even if the battery is removed. Therefore, it is necessary to clear the memory after performing repairs. Refer to the Workshop Manual for the DTC clearing procedure.

Fail-safe Function

•  When the malfunction detection function determines a malfunction, each light illuminates to advise the driver. At this time, the fail-safe function controls the ABS, EBD, TCS, DSC and brake assist control as shown in the fail-safe function malfunction contents table.
Warning
•  If EBD control is prohibited the rear wheels could lock-up before the front wheels.If this occurs, the vehicle could yaw and become unstable. Therefore always inspect the system immediately if EBD control is prohibited.
