DIAGNOSIS
Diagnosis and troubleshooting of the DSC III system is carried out using the DIS Tester or
MoDiC. The DSC control module performs a self check every time the ignition is switched
on. The warning lamps for DSC and ABS will remain on during the self check.
Any faults with the system will cause the lamps to remain on when the engine is started.
Faults that only effect the DSC operation will cause the DSC warning lamp to remain on,
however ABS can still function.
If the battery has been disconnected, the DSC warning lamp will remain on until the vehi-
cle receives road speed signals front the front wheel speed sensors and the steering angle
sensor can calculate the direction of travel.
