The body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) is under the right-hand front seat. The sensor is supplied with 12 V and is grounded in the brake control module (BCM). The information from the body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) is used for stability calculations in the brake control module (BCM). The body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) contains a yaw angle sensor which measures the yaw angle speed in °/s, and a lateral acceleration sensor which measures lateral acceleration in m/s2 . The body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) for AWD also contains an acceleration sensor which measures longitudinal acceleration

The body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) communicates with the brake control module (BCM) via an internal controller area network (CAN).

The body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC) can be diagnosed by the brake control module (BCM).

When replacing the body sensor cluster stability sensor (BSC), the brake control module (BCM) must be calibrated according to the information in VIDA vehicle communication or manually according to the test drive.
