VSC does not Operate or VSC does not Operate Correctly [11/2018 - ]: Procedure

  1. BRAKE PROBLEM CHECK 
    1. Check whether the slip indicator light was illuminated when VSC did not operate.

      OK

      The slip indicator light was illuminated.

      HINT: 

      When a DTC is stored, the slip indicator light is illuminated and VSC does not operate due to the fail-safe function.

    2. Check whether the vehicle speed was 15 km/h (9 mph) or less when VSC did not operate.

      OK

      The vehicle speed was 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.

      HINT: 

      VSC does not operate when the vehicle speed is 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.

    3. Check whether the vehicle was driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.

      OK

      The vehicle was not driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.

      HINT: 

      When the ignition switch is turned to ON, as steering sensor zero point calibration is not performed below 15 km/h (9 mph), VSC will not operate until the vehicle is driven straight for a few seconds at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. CHECK AIRBAG ECU ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION 
    1. Check that the yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) has been installed properly.

      Refer to INSTALLATION [11/2018 - 08/2020] , or refer to INSTALLATION [08/2020 - ]

      OK

      The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) is tightened to the specified torque.

      The yaw rate and acceleration sensor (airbag ECU assembly) is not installed in a tilted position.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result:
