DCS Control Overview: Notes
The Teves DSC system maintains the lateral location forces during all phases of operation through;
- ABS - Hydraulic intervention preventing the wheels from locking during hard braking
- ASC +T - Engine drive torque reduction and/or hydraulic intervention on the drive wheels to ensure straight line traction (acceleration - driving and deceleration)
- DSC - Engine drive torque reduction and/or hydraulic intervention on any wheel brake during cornering to minimize oversteer and understeer conditions
DSC control can aid the driver in controlling the vehicle while driving but can not overcome the laws of physics if the vehicle is being driven beyond the range of DSC control.
