Component Location
General Description

The ESP system is the shorten word of Electronic Stability Control system. This system recognizes a critical driving condition by Yaw-rate sensor, Lateral acceleration sensor and Steering angle sensor. And then it stabilizes the vehicle by a individual wheel braking and engine torque control through CAN communication. There is no difference in the HECU's hardware side according to a vehicle speficiation, but there is a difference in its software side because the applied vehicle parameters differ according to a vehicle specification. The HECU stores the variant code value in the ECU's memory based on the received data by CAN communication.
