DSC OPERATES FREQUENTLY/DSC DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)]

6

DSC*2 operates frequently

DSC does not work correctly

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

POSSIBLE CAUSE

  • DSC HU/CM detected malfunction. (Input and output device malfunction)

  • Poor installation with SAS control module (yaw rate sensor, low-G sensor) (If SAS control module is poorly installed, DSC may operate intermittently.)

  • There is a difference in condition or air pressure between front or rear tires.

  • When replacing DSC HU/CM and SAS control module, initialization is not performed. (If initialization is not performed correctly, DSC may not work correctly.)

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

CONFIRM DSC HU/CM DTC

Yes

Go to the applicable DTC inspection.

(See DTC INSPECTION [DSC HU/CM].)

No

Go to the next step.

2

VERIFY THAT BRAKE FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR IS INITIALIZED

  • Verify that each sensor is initialized.

  • Has the initialization for the DSC HU/CM been performed after replacing the DSC HU/CM and the SAS control module?

Yes

Inspect the tire pressure and condition.

    If the tire pressure is incorrect:

  • Adjust the tire pressure to the specification

    If the tires are worn:

  • Replace the tires.

No

Perform the initialization procedure.
