DSC Control Inspection

  1. Perform "PREPARATION ".
  2. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  3. Set up an active command mode inspection according to the combination of commands below. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)] .)
    CAUTION:
    • When operating the solenoid valve and pump motor using the active command mode, make sure to keep the operation time within 2 s to prevent damaging the DSC HU/CM.

    • Performing the inspection above determines the following:
      • The DSC HU/CM brake lines are normal.
      • The DSC HU/CM hydraulic system has no significant malfunction (including DSC HU/CM).
      • The DSC HU/CM internal electrical parts (solenoid, motor and other parts) are normal.
      • The DSC unit and DSC HU/CM output system wiring harnesses (solenoid valve, relay system) are normal.
    • However, the following items cannot be verified.
      • Intermittent malfunction of the above items
      • Malfunction of DSC HU/CM input system wiring harnesses and parts
      • Extremely small leakage in the DSC HU/CM internal hydraulic system
