VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM VSC OFF Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is connected to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.

Pressing the VSC OFF switch turns off TRC operation, and pressing and holding this switch turns off TRC and VSC operation. If TRC and VSC operations are turned off, the TRC OFF message will be displayed on the multi-information display and the VSC OFF indicator light will come on.
