VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM VSC OFF Indicator Light Remains ON

DTC Code DTC Name
VSC OFF Indicator Light Remains ON

DESCRIPTION

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

for Segment Display Type:

Pressing the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly) turns off traction control and pressing and holding this switch turns off traction and VSC controls. If traction control turns OFF, the TRC/TRAC OFF indicator light will come on.

If VSC and traction control turns OFF, the TRC/TRAC OFF indicator and VSC OFF indicator light will come on.

The VSC OFF indicator light is illuminated when the VSC and TRC/TRAC controls are prohibited by operating the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly).

By pressing the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly) for 3 seconds or more, the VSC OFF mode is activated, the VSC and TRC/TRAC controls are prohibited, and both the VSC OFF indicator light and the TRC/TRAC OFF indicator light in the combination meter are illuminated.

for TFT Display Type:

Pressing the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly) turns off traction control and pressing and holding this switch turns off traction and VSC controls. If traction control turns OFF, TRC OFF is displayed on the multi-information display.

If VSC and traction control turns OFF, TRC OFF is displayed on the multi-information display and the VSC OFF indicator light will come on.

The VSC OFF indicator light is illuminated when the VSC and TRC controls are prohibited by operating the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly).

By pressing the VSC OFF switch (telltale light assembly) for 3 seconds or more, the VSC OFF mode is activated, VSC and TRC controls are prohibited, the VSC OFF indicator light illuminates and TRC OFF is displayed on the multi-information display.
