Trailer Stabilizing Control (Only In Conjunction With Trailer Module For E60 And E61)

Trailer stabilizing control detects when a trailer is rocking about its vertical axis. The system functions at a speed of about 65 km/h when the trailer socket is in use.

With the aid of the DSC sensors, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) monitors the vehicle's yaw behavior. If the trailer's rocking motion exceeds the limit, the engine output is reduced. In addition, DSC brakes all four wheels automatically.

If DSC is deactivated or faulty, then the trailer stabilizing control does not work either.
