NO.6 DSC*2 OPERATES FREQUENTLY/DSC DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY *2: TCS/DSC INDICATOR LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF WHILE DSC OPERATES [ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM]


id040309896100

Troubleshooting item

DSC*2 operates frequently

DSC does not work correctly

*2: TCS/DSC indicator light goes on and off while DSC operates

Possible cause
•  Electronically controlled brake unit detected malfunction. (Input and output device malfunction)
•  There is a difference in size or air pressure between front or rear tires.
•  Poor installation with SAS control module (yaw rate sensor, low-G sensor) (If SAS control module is poorly installed, DSC may operate intermittently.)
•  When replacing DSC HU/CM initialization is not performed. (If initialization is not performed correctly, DSC may not work correctly.)
•  Incorrect ABS wheel speed sensor is inputted to electronically controlled brake unit.

Diagnostic procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
CONFIRM ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE UNIT DTC
•  Retrieve the electronically controlled brake unit DTC using the M-MDS.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
2
VERIFY THAT SAS CONTROL MODULE IS INSTALLED
•  Verify that each sensor is installed.
•  Is SAS control module (yaw rate sensor, low-G sensor) securely installed?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Install the malfunctioning sensor securely, and perform the repair completion verification.
3
VERIFY THAT BRAKE FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR IS INITIALIZED
•  Verify that each sensor is initialized.
•  Has the initialization for the electronically controlled brake unit been performed after replacing the electronically controlled brake unit and the SAS control module?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Perform the initialization procedure, and perform the repair completion verification.
4
INSPECT TIRE SIZE AND AIR PRESSURE
•  Inspect tire size and air pressure.
•  Tire size and air pressure as specified?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace with specified tires and adjust tire air pressure, and perform the repair completion verification.
5
INSPECT ABS WHEEL-SPEED SENSOR
•  Is the ABS wheel-speed sensor normal?
Yes
Found malfunctioning part according to the “INTERMITTENT CONCERN TROUBLESHOOTING”.
No
ABS wheel-speed sensor installation inspection:
•  Inspect the ABS wheel-speed sensor for looseness and confirm it is securely adhered.
ABS sensor rotor installation inspection:
•  Inspect the ABS sensor rotor for poor installation.
Repair or replace any malfunctioning parts according to the inspection result.
Perform the repair completion verification.
Repair completion verification
VERIFY THAT MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS DO NOT RECUR AFTER REPAIR
•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
•  Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
Yes
Complete the symptom troubleshooting.
Explain to the customer what has been repaired.
No
Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
