EBD (electronic braking distribution):
The electronic braking distribution unit optimises the brakeforce distribution between the front and rear axles.
This function ensures vehicle stability under braking.
ABS (anti-lock braking system):
The ABS prevents the wheels from locking when braking. This function allows the vehicle to be steered under
braking and ensures vehicle stability under braking.
MSR (engine torque control):
This is a function that enhances the ABS function. Its purpose is to prevent the drive wheels from spinning
excessively when lifting off the accelerator or changing down a gear on a low grip surface, by requesting the engine
management to regulate the driving torque of the engine (resisting torque compensation) to "relaunch" the wheels.
ASR (wheel traction control):
This function keeps the drive wheels from slipping during starting or acceleration.
The system brakes the wheel in a slippage situation to maintain full traction.
ESP: Electronic stability program:
The ESP guarantees within physical limits the dynamic stability of the vehicle by checking and correcting oversteer.
In any case, the ESP system does not intervene in place of the driver. Using data from the steering wheel, it merely
makes vehicle handling truer to the driver's intention.
CDC (Dynamic Driving Control):
The Dynamic Driving Control guarantees vehicle steerability within physical limits by checking and correcting
understeer.
The Dynamic Driving Control is an advancement of the ESP system and has same objective: to maintain vehicle
control in all operating situations.
The ESP computer supplies the other computers with information on the vehicle speed via a wire connection for the
radio, the power-assisted steering and the electric sunroof, and via the multiplex network for the other computers.
The ESP computer also supplies the multiplex network with the odometry for the instrument panel and navigation
system.
If heavy braking produces very rapid deceleration, the ESP computer issues a request to the UCH (passenger
compartment connection unit) via the multiplex network asking it to switch on the hazard warning lights (depending
on the law in the relevant country).

Parameters:
VP001: Enter VIN
This command allows the vehicle identification number to be entered into the computer.
Use this command each time the computer is replaced. The VIN (VF...) is engraved on the manufacturer's plate on
the front right-hand door pillar and stamped on the body under the windscreen on the left-hand side.
VP003: Steering wheel angle sensor
This command is used to calibrate the steering wheel angle.
With the steering wheel horizontal and the front wheels set straight ahead, calibrate the steering wheel angle sensor
using command VP003 on the diagnostic tool.
VP004: Vehicle parameters
This command configures the engine type configuration, the braking definition and the body type. Select the
command VP004 on the diagnostic tool.
VP006: Enter last After-Sales operation date
Whenever the ABS system is worked on in the shop, the date must be entered.
Select command VP006 on the diagnostic tool.
Enter the service date using the diagnostic tool keypad.
VP007: Tachometric index
This command is used to program the computer memory with the index required to calculate the vehicle speed
according to the tyre size.
The BOSCH 8.1 ESP computer supplies the vehicle speed signal to all areas where this information is needed
(instrument panel, engine management, etc.). This vehicle speed signal replaces the one supplied by the speed
sensor located on the gearbox.
The ESP computer calculates the vehicle speed from the wheel speed and the tyre circumference.
The tyre circumference must be programmed into the memory of a new computer. This consists of entering an index
"X" using the command VP007 "Tachometric index" on the diagnostic tool.
Once the number has been entered using the VP007 command, delete the fault in the computer memory and then
switch off the ignition. Use parameter PR030 "Tachometric index" to check that the index entered has been
recognised by the system.
VP021: Inhibit automatic brake lights
This command deactivates the automatic brake lights.
Select command VP021 on the diagnostic tool.
VP022: Automatic brake lights authorisation
This command authorises the automatic brake lights.
Select command VP022 on the diagnostic tool.
* APV: After-SalesNote:
The vehicle speed is supplied by a wire (connection 47F) to the radio, to the electric power-assisted
steering, to the electric sunroof and by the multiplex network for the other computers.

AC195VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL
NOTESConditions of use of the command.
Ignition on, engine stopped and vehicle speed zero.
This command is used to generate a speed other than 0 mph (0 km/h) at the computer's vehicle speed wire output
(connection 47F) for users of that signal (radio, sunroof, power-assisted steering).
This command has no visible effect on the dashboard speedometer needle.
Radio: Switch on the radio and check that the "adjustment of volume according to speed" function is active
(see 86A, radio).
Run the command AC195. During the command, you should hear the volume of the sound increase and then
decrease.
Variable electric power-assisted steering: Start the vehicle then return to the conditions of use of the command.
Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock using command AC195, to note a variation in the assistance level.
