Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The electronic brake control module (EBCM) uses the lateral accelerometer signal to determine the lateral forces acting on a vehicle during a turn or a skid. The EBCM uses the signal from the lateral accelerometer as one of the inputs to operate the vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES).
