Electronic Suspension Control Position Sensors
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ESC position sensors provide the ESC module with the body to wheel displacement input. The ESC module uses this and other inputs in order to control the position of the shock absorber. If any body or wheel motion is detected, the ESC module will determine how soft or firm each shock absorber should be to provide the best ride. The ESC position sensors are mounted at each corner of the vehicle between the control arm and the body.
