System Outline

This system is composed of the VSA modulator-control unit, the wheel speed sensors, the steering angle sensor, the yaw rate-acceleration sensor, and the system indicators in the gauge control module. The VSA modulator-control unit controls the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), the Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), the Traction Control System (TCS), the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), the Hill Start Assist* (HSA), and brake assist with the brake pressure of each wheel and reduces engine torque.
