- FREEZE FRAME DATA
- The vehicle (sensor) status memorized during ABS and/or VSC operation or at the time of error code detection can be displayed by the hand-held tester.
- Only one record of freeze frame data is stored and the freeze frame data generated during ABS and/or VSC operation are constantly updated. Also, the number of the ignition switch's "ON" after the freeze frame data is stored can be memorized up to 31 and it can be displayed.
HINT:
If the ignition switch "ON" operation exceeds 31 times, "31" appears on the display.
- If the diagnosis code abnormality occurs, the freeze frame data at the occurrence of the abnormality is stored but the ABS actuation data is deleted.FREEZE FRAME DATA

VSC SENSOR CHECK (TEST MODE)
NOTE: When having replaced the yaw rate sensor, deceleration sensor and/or ECU, perform a zero point calibration of the yaw rate and deceleration sensors (See step 8.).HINT:
If the ignition switch is turned from the ON to the ACC or LOCK during test mode, DTC will be erased.
- Procedures for test mode:
- Turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Check that the shift lever is in the P position, and turn the steering wheel to the neutral position.
- Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E1
of the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
- Start the engine.
- Check that the VSC TRAC warning light blinks.
HINT:
If the VSC TRAC warning light does not blink, inspect the VSC TRAC warning light circuit and Ts terminal circuit (See VSC TRAC WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT and TS TERMINAL CIRCUIT ).
Turn the steering wheel either to the left or right 450° or more from the vehicle stationary condition, and turn back the steering wheel to the straight ahead position.
- Keep the vehicle stationary on a level place for 1 sec. or more.
- Check the yaw rate sensor.
Shift the shift lever to the D position and drive the vehicle at a vehicle speed of approx. 5 km/h (3 mph), turn the steering wheel either to the left or right 90° or more, and maintain this angle until the vehicle has turned 180°.
Stop the vehicle and shift the shift lever to the P position. Check that the VSC buzzer sounds for 3 sec.
If the VSC buzzer sounds, the sensor check is in normal completion.
If the VSC buzzer does not sound, do the sensor check again. If the VSC buzzer still does not sound, check the VSC buzzer circuit, then do the sensor check again.
TROUBLE AREA AND REFERENCETrouble Area Reference VSC buzzer circuit Brake Warning and VSC Buzzer Circuit HINT:

CHECK VSC SENSOR SIGNAL
NOTE: When having replaced the yaw rate sensor, deceleration sensor and/or ECU, perform a zero point calibration of the yaw rate and deceleration sensors (See step 7.). Make sure that this operation should be done before starting the following.- Hook up the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
- Do steps (a)-( 2) and from (a)-( 4) to ( c).
- Read the DTC by following the prompts on the tester screen.
HINT:
Please refer to the hand-held tester operator's manual for further details.

VSC SENSOR PROBLEM SYMPTOMCode No. Diagnosis Trouble Area C0371/71 Yaw rate sensor output signal malfunction bull Yaw rate sensor bull Yaw rate sensor circuit
- IF NECESSARY, PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION OF YAW RATE AND DECELERATION SENSORS
HINT:
- When having replaced the yaw rate sensor, deceleration sensor or/and the ECU, make sure to perform a yaw rate and deceleration sensors zero point calibration.
- This operation is also required when the deceleration sensor or yaw rate sensor has been replaced since the calibrated zero point of both sensors will be erased.
NOTE:- While obtaining the zero point, do not vibrate the vehicle by tilting, moving or shaking it and keep it in a stationary condition. (Do not start the engine.)
- Be sure to do this on a level surface (within an inclination of 1%).
- Clear the zero point of the yaw rate and deceleration sensors.
- Shift the shift lever to P range.
- Turn the ignition switch ON in a stationary condition.
- With the ignition switch ON, using SST, repeat a cycle of short and open between terminals Ts and EI of the DLC 14 times or more within 8 sec. Check that the VSC warning light is lit indicating the recorded zero point is erased.
SST 09843-18020
- Turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Obtain the zero point of the yaw rate sensor.
- Disconnect terminals Ts and E1 of the DLC1.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
HINT:
The vehicle should be in a stationary condition with the shift lever in the P position.
- Check that the lighted VSC warning light goes off about 15 sec. after the ignition switch is turned ON.
HINT:
Even if the ignition is not turned OFF in step (a)-( 4) and remains ON, a yaw rate sensor zero point calibration can be completed. In this case, the VSC warning light is lit about 15 sec. and starts blinking. (Normal code)
- After ensuring that the VSC warning light remains OFF for 2 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
If the ignition switch is not turned OFF in step (a)-( 4), ensure the blinking of the VSC warning light for 2 sec. and turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Perform a deceleration sensor zero point calibration.NOTE: After step ( b) (a yaw rate sensor zero point calibration), the VSC warning light goes off. At this time, if the vehicle is driven without performing step ( c) (a deceleration sensor zero point calibration), deceleration sensor zero point calibration malfunction will be detected and the VSC warning light will light up. Therefore, perform step ( c) right after step ( b).
- Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E1
of the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
HINT:
Keep the vehicle in a stationary condition with the shift lever in the P position.
- After turning the ignition switch ON, check that the VSC warning light is lit for about 4 sec. and then starts quick blinking at 0.13 sec. intervals.
- After ensuring the blinking of the VSC warning light for 2 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Remove the SST and disconnect terminals Ts and E1
of the DLC1.
