Description and Operation

Description of ESC
Optimum driving safety now has a name : ESC, the Electronic Stability Program.

ESC recognizes critical driving conditions, such as panic reactions in dangerous situations, and stabilizes the vehicle by wheel-individual braking and engine control intervention with no needfor actuating the brake or the gas pedal.

ESC adds a further function known as Active Yaw Control (AYC) to the ABS, TCS, EBD and ESC functions. Whereas the ABS/TCS function controls wheel slip during braking and acceleration and, thus, mainly intervenes in the longitudinal dynamics of the vehicle, active yaw control stabilizes the vehicle about its vertical axis.

This is achieved by wheel individual brake intervention and adaptation of the momentary engine torque with no need for any action to be taken by the driver.

ESC essentially consists of three assemblies : the sensors, the electronic control unit and the actuators.

Of course, the stability control feature works under all driving and operating conditions. Under certain driving conditions, the ABS/TCS function can be activated simultaneously with the ESC function in rESConse to a command by the driver.

In the event of a failure of the stability control function, the basic safety function, ABS, is still maintained.

Description of ESC Control

ESC system includes ABS/EBD, TCS and AYC (Active yaw control) function.

ABS/EBD function : The ECU changes the active sensor signal (current shift) coming from the four wheel sensors to the square waveform.By using the input of above signals, the ECU calculates the vehicle speed and the acceleration & deceleration of the four wheels.And, the ECU judges whether the ABS/EBD should be actuated or not.

TCS function prevents the wheel slip of drive direction by adding the brake pressure and engine torque reduction via CAN communication.TCS function uses the wheel speed sensor signal to determine the wheel slip as far as ABS function.

AYC function prevents unstable maneuver of the vehicle. To determine the vehicle maneuver, AYC function uses the maneuver sensor signals(Yaw Rate Sensor, Lateral Acceleration Sensor, Steering Wheel Angle Sensor).

If vehicle maneuver is unstable (Over Steer or Under Steer), AYC function applies the brake pressure on certain wheel, and send engine torque reduction signal by CAN.

After the key-on, the ECU continually diagnoses the system failure. (self-diagnosis)If the system failure is detected, the ECU informs driver of the system failure through the BRAKE/ABS/ESC warning lamp. (fail-safe warning)

Repair procedures

Inspection
ESC System Bleeding

This procedure should be followed to ensure adequate bleeding of air and filling of the ESC unit, brake lines and master cylinder with brake fluid.

1. Remove the reservoir cap and fill the brake reservoir with brake fluid.
  
If there is any brake fluid on any painted surface, wash it off immediately.
When pressure bleeding, do not depress the brake pedal.
Recommended fluid........ DOT3 or DOT4
2. Connect a clear plastic tube to the wheel cylinder bleeder plug and insert the other end of the tube into a half filled clear plastic bottle.
3. Connect the GDS to the data link connector located underneath the dash panel.
4. Select and operate according to the instructions on the GDS screen
  
You must obey the maximum operating time of the ESC motor with the GDS to prevent the motor pump from burning.
1. Select vehicle name.
2. Select ABS/ESC system.
3. Select HCU air bleeding mode.

5. Pump the brake pedal several times, and then loosen the bleeder screw until fluid starts to run out without bubbles. Then close the bleeder screw (A).

6. Repeat the procedure for wheel in the sequence shown below until air bubbles no longer appear in the fluid.

7. Refill the master cylinder reservoir to MAX(upper) level line.

Troubleshooting

Failure Diagnosis
1. In principle, ESC and TCS controls are prohibited in case of ABS failure.
2. When ESC or TCS fails, only the failed system control is prohibited.
3. However, when the solenoid valve relay should be turned off in case of ESC failure, refer to the ABS fail-safe.
4. Information on ABS fail-safe is identical to the fail-safe in systems where ESC is not installed.
Memory of Fail Code
1. It keeps the code as far as the backup lamp power is connected. (O)
2. It keeps the code as long as the HCU power is on. (X)
Failure Checkup
1. Initial checkup is performed immediately after the HECU power on.
2. Valve relay checkup is performed immediately after the IG2 ON.
3. It executes the checkup all the time while the IG2 power is on.
4. Initial checkup is made in the following cases.
(1) When no failure is detected
(2) When ABS and ESC are not in control.
(3) Initial checkup is not made after ECU power on.
(4) If the vehicle speed is over 5 mph(8 km/h) when the brake lamp switch is off.
(5) When the vehicle speed is over 24.8 mph(40 km/h).
5. Though, it keeps on checkup even if the brake lamp switch is on.
6. When performing ABS or ESC control before the initial checkup, stop the initial checkup and wait for the HECU power input again.
7. Judge failure in the following cases.
(1) When the power is normal.
(2) From the point in which the vehicle speed reaches 4.9 mph(8 km/h) after HECU power on.
Countermeasures In Fail
1. Shut the system down and perform the following actions and wait for HECU power OFF.
2. Turn the valve relay off.
3. Do not perform any ABS/TCS/ESC functions until normal operating condition is restored.
Warning Lamp On
1. ABS warning lamp turns on when ABS is malfunctioning.
2. ESC function/ warning lamp turns on when ESC is malfunctioning.
When power voltage and valve relay voltage are abnormal, input/output related failure judgment is not made.
