ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM VSC OFF Indicator Light Remains ON

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) is connected to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.

Pressing the VSC OFF switch (integration control and panel assembly) turns off TRC control and pressing and holding this switch turns off TRC and VSC controls. If VSC control is turned off, the VSC OFF indicator light will come on.
