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).

2.DEFNOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to
stored faults:
The fault is declared present after a road test.
Check the connection and condition (possible wiring damage) of the connectors of components 1094 and 151.
If the connector is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions
for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
Check the insulation and continuity of connections 4G and 4H between components 151 and 1094.
Also check the insulation between these 2 connections.
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Inspect the condition of the target (metallic contamination etc.).
Clean the target with compressed air if necessary.
For versions equipped with disc brakes:

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
Clear the stored fault, carry out a road test at a speed of > 36 mph (60 km/h) and test
the brakes using ABS.
Use the interpretation of the fault if it recurs.
Special notes:
The fault is detected if the computer does not detect a brake lights switch status change
for 4 acceleration/braking cycles and/or the contact is closed for over 6 minutes with
the vehicle speed above 24 mph (40 km/h).
Using the diagnostic tool, check on the status screen that ET017 Brake pedal recognises the correct pressed
and released positions of the brake pedal.
If the correct pedal position is not displayed, use the interpretation of ET017 Brake pedal.

the brake circuit (see MR 411, Mechanical, 30A,
General information, Brake circuit, Bleeding).
If the travel is normal, check that the 4 vehicle tyres
are identical and in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations (see MR 411,
