System Description: Function: VDC
- In addition to the TCS/ABS function, the driver steering amount and brake operation amount are detected from the steering angle sensor and pressure sensor, and the vehicle's driving status (amount of under steering / over steering) is determined from information from the yaw rate side/decel G sensor, wheel sensor, etc., and this information is used to improve vehicle stability by controlling the braking and engine power to all four wheels.
- The SLIP indicator lamp flashes to inform the driver of VDC operation.
- During VDC operation, the body and brake pedal lightly vibrate and mechanical noises may be heard. This is normal.
- The ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp might turn on when the vehicle is subject to strong shaking or large vibration, such as when the vehicle is on a turn table or a ship while the engine is running or steep slope such as bank. In this case, restart the engine on a normal road, and if the ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp turn off, there is no malfunction.
