Actuator

Hydraulic unit

9

Drives the solenoid valve using the signal from
ASC-ECU, and controls the brake fluid pressure for
each wheel.

ABS warning light

10

Informs the driver of the system status by illuminating,
flashing, or turning off the warning light according to
the signal from ASC-ECU.

ABS warning display

11

Informs the driver of the system status by illuminating
or turning off the warning light according to the signal
from ASC-ECU.

Brake warning light

12

Used as the warning light for the parking brake, brake
fluid level, and EBD control. Informs the driver of the
system status by illuminating or turning off the warning
light according to the signal from ASC-ECU.

Brake warning display

13

Used as the warning light for the brake fluid level and
EBD control. Informs the driver of the system status by
illuminating or turning off the warning light according to
the signal from ASC-ECU.

ASC operation display

14

According to the signal from ASC-ECU, flashes when
the system is active to inform the driver of the status.

ASC warning display

15

The TCL function and ASC function use the same
display. According to the signal from ASC-ECU, the
display is illuminated to inform the driver that the
system is abnormal.

ASC OFF light

16

Informs the driver of the ASC system shutdown by
illuminating according to the signal from ASC-ECU.

ASC OFF display

17

Using the signal from ASC-ECU, the display is
illuminated to inform the driver that the ASC OFF
switch is pressed and held for 3 seconds, and that the
ASC and AYC

*1

brake control is prohibited.

*2

20

*2

Outputs the shift position to ASC-ECU.

S-AWC ECU

21

Outputs the drive status and brake fluid pressure
request to ASC-ECU.

ASC-ECU

22

Controls the actuators (described above) based on the
signals coming from each sensors.
Controls the self-diagnostic functions and fail-safe
functions.
Controls diagnostic function (Compatible with scan
tool).

G AND YAW RATE SENSOR

This sensor is installed under the instrument panel center
lower, and detects the yaw rate as well as the lateral and longi-
tudinal acceleration of the vehicle.

ASC OFF SWITCH

The ASC OFF switch is installed to the instrument panel to the
right of driver seat. By the operation of this switch, the TCL
function, skid control function, and AYC brake control can be
enabled or prohibited. As a countermeasure against the ASC
OFF switch sticking, the ASC system returns to the ON status
when the ASC OFF switch is pressed and held for 15 seconds.
When the ignition switch is turned from "LOCK" (OFF) to ON
position, the TCL function and skid control function are con-
stantly in the ON status.
