DSC Control Inspection

  1. Perform "Preparation".
  2. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  3. Set up an active command mode inspection according to the combination of commands below.
    CAUTION:
    • To protect the DSC/RSC HU/CM, the solenoid valve and the pump motor used during active command mode stay on for only 10 s or less each time they are switched on.

    • Performing the inspection above determines the following:
      • The DSC/RSC HU/CM brake lines are normal.
      • The DSC/RSC HU/CM hydraulic system is not significantly abnormal (including DSC/RSC HU/CM).
      • The DSC/RSC HU/CM internal electrical parts (solenoid, motor and other parts) are normal.
      • The DSC/RSC unit and DSC/RSC HU/CM output system wiring harnesses (solenoid valve, relay system) are normal.
    • However, the following items cannot be verified.
      • Malfunction with intermittent occurrence of the above items
      • Malfunction of DSC/RSC HU/CM input system wiring harnesses and parts
      • Extremely small leaks in the DSC/RSC HU/CM internal hydraulic system
