YAW CONTROL (YC)

Advanced ECU can include Yaw Control (YC) functionality,

which has the ability to apply brakes to individual wheel

ends, as well as applying the trailer brakes, to counteract

trailer “push” that, during certain maneuvers, could lead to

a loss-of-control or a jackknife incident. See "Yaw Stability"

on page 9 for further details.

ROLL STABILITY PROGRAM (RSP)

The Bendix Roll Stability Program (RSP), is an all-axle

ABS solution that helps reduce vehicle speed by reducing

the engine's throttle and applying all vehicle brakes as

needed, reducing the vehicle's tendency to roll over. RSP

focuses on reducing the vehicle’s speed below the critical

roll threshold during direction-changing maneuvers such as

driving on curved highway exit ramps or obstacle avoidance

maneuvers on dry, high friction surfaces. See "Advanced

ABS with Stability Control" on page 12 for further details.

WARNING

During an RSP system intervention, the vehicle

automatically decelerates . RSP can slow the vehicle

with or

without the operator applying the brake pedal,

and

even when the operator is applying the throttle .

COMPONENTS

The Bendix EC-60 controller’s ABS function utilizes the

following components:

• Bendix

wheel speed sensors (4 or 6,

depending on configuration). Each sensor is

installed with a Bendix Sensor Clamping Sleeve

• Bendix

M-32

or M-32QR

Pressure Modulator

Valves (4, 5, or 6 depending on configuration)

• Dash-mounted tractor ABS Indicator Lamp
• Service brake relay valve
• Dash-mounted trailer ABS Indicator Lamp
• Optional blink code activation switch
• Optional ABS off-road switch

MODULATORS

The Bendix EC-60 controller ESP/RSP function utilizes the

following additional components:

• Steer Axle Traction Control Valve (may be integral

to the service brake relay valve or a stand-alone

device)

• Dash-mounted ESP status/indicator lamp (also

serves as the ATC status/indicator lamp)

• Bendix SAS-60

Steering Angle Sensor (mounted

to the steering column - See Figure 4)

CAUTION

: When replacing a steering wheel,

take care not to damage the Steering Angle Sensor

or interfere with its operation, and the Steering Angle

Sensor must be recalibrated (see Troubleshooting

section)

• Bendix

YAS-60

or YAS-70X

Yaw Rate/Lateral

Acceleration Sensors (typically mounted to a cross-

member near the back of the vehicle cab)

• Brake Demand Sensors (installed in the primary

and secondary delivery circuits)

• Load Sensor (typically installed in the suspension

air bag)

• An additional Modulator Valve (Bendix

®

M-32

or

M-32QR

Pressure Modulator Valve) that controls

pressure apply to trailer brakes during system

intervention
