At the same time, the brake warning lamp (red) and brake system warning lamp (yellow) turn ON and the buzzer sounds.
- When a malfunction occurs in the electrically-driven intelligent brake unit, the VDC function performs control (boost operation).
- When a malfunction occurs in the DC/DC-J/B and 12V battery, the braking force is determined by the force pressing on the brake pedal (no boost operation). At the same time, brake warning lamp (red) and the brake system warning lamp (yellow) turns ON.
- When a malfunction occurs in the brake power supply backup unit, the brake system warning lamp (yellow) turns ON.
- When a malfunction occurs in the electrically-driven intelligent brake and in the VDC function, the braking force is determined by the force pressing on the brake pedal (no boost operation). At the same time, the brake warning lamp (red) and brake system warning lamp (yellow) turn ON.
