DESCRIPTION

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

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