Trailer Stability Control

The Trailer Stability Control detects snaking movements of a trailer around the vertical axis. The system works as of a speed of approx. 65 kph with the electrical connector for trailer occupied. The dynamic stability control (DSC) monitors the yawing motion of the vehicle with the help of the DSC sensors. If the limit value is exceeded on the swinging trailer, the engine performance is reduced. The DSC also automatically brakes all 4 wheels. With deactivated or faulty DSC, the Trailer Stability Control is also disabled.
