Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Control DSTC
Activation of DSTC is controlled by turning the control for the Steering wheel module (SWM). When the ignition is activated the DSTC function is always engaged. When selecting the DSTC function the on/off mode is available. When the control sets DSTC in mode on/off, this is confirmed by a message in the Driver information module (DIM).
If a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored in the brake control module (BCM) a message is displayed in the Driver information module (DIM). The messages vary depending on whether the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) was stored when the DSTC function was active or inactive.
