DSC*2 operates frequently

DSC does not work correctly

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

POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  DSC HU/CM 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 (XY) sensor) and/or steering angle sensor (If any of the above sensors are poorly installed, DSC may operate intermittently.)
•  When replacing DSC HU/CM or steering angle sensor initialization is not performed (If initialization is not performed correctly, DSC may not work correctly).
•  Incorrect ABS wheel speed sensor is inputted to DSC HU/CM.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
CONFIRM DSC HU/CM DTC
•  Retrieve the DSC HU/CM 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 EACH SENSOR IS INSTALLED
•  Verify that each sensor is installed.
•  Are SAS control module (yaw rate sensor, low-G (XY) sensor) and steering angle sensor securely installed?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Install the malfunctioning sensor securely.
3
VERIFY THAT EACH SENSOR IS INITIALIZED
•  Verify that each sensor is initialized.
•  Did each sensor initialize after replacement of DTC HU/CM or steering angle sensor?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Perform the initialization procedure.
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.
5*
INSPECT ABS WHEEL-SPEED SENSOR OUTPUT PULSE
•  Perform the Voltage Pattern Inspection for each ABS wheel-speed sensor.
•  Is the output voltage pattern 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.

•  When performing an asterisked (*) troubleshooting inspection, shake the wiring harness and connectors while doing the inspection to discover whether poor contact points are the cause of any intermittent malfunctions. If there is a problem, check to make sure connectors, terminals and wiring harness are connected correctly and undamaged.
