System DescriptionINFOID:0000000003772485
• Vehicle Dynamics Control system detects driver ′s steering operation amount and brake pedal travel from
steering angle sensor and pressure sensors. Using information from yaw rate/side/decel G sensor and
wheel sensor, VDC judges driving condition (conditions of under steer and over steer) to improve vehicle
driving stability by controlling brake application to 4 wheels and engine output.
• During VDC operation, it inform s driver of system operation by flashing SLIP indicator lamp.
• Electrical system diagnosis by CONSULT-III is available.
