DESCRIPTION
The ECM sends signals such as dynamic radar cruise control operation signals, brake operation demand signals and buzzer operation demand signals to the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid)*1 or skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)*2 when the dynamic radar cruise control is operating. Therefore, if the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid)*1 or skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)*2 detects a communication error with the ECM, it sends a malfunction signal back to the ECM.
