What are the common faults of Mitsubishi ASC display?
2 Answers
Common faults include: damaged memory modules, damaged motherboard components, and damaged hard drives. Additional information about ASC is as follows: 1. Meaning: The fault code ASC in Mitsubishi Pajero V73 refers to the Active Stability Control system. 2. Function of ASC: It controls the steering stability of the vehicle by sensing the steering angle and the vehicle's slip rate during turns. It prevents understeer and oversteer during turns by applying different braking forces to the four wheels and reducing engine power output. It also prevents wheel slip or spin on special road surfaces, ensuring the vehicle achieves optimal driving conditions and avoids dangerous situations.
I have been driving Mitsubishi vehicles for many years, and there are several common reasons for the ASC warning light to illuminate. The wheel sensors are the most prone to issues; for example, on rainy days or dusty roads, sensors can become covered or waterlogged, leading to failure and signal interruption, which triggers the light. The yaw rate sensor may become inaccurate after driving on bumpy roads, especially during cold starts in winter, making it more susceptible to malfunctions. Aging wiring is also a frequent issue, where loose or corroded connections can interrupt signals. If the control module fails, the entire system becomes inoperative, and the light will stay on. It is recommended to regularly clean the sensors and check wiring connections during each maintenance service. Ignoring these faults can affect the vehicle's stability, increasing the risk of skidding during turns and compromising safety. It's best to drive to a professional shop for a diagnostic scan to check the error codes.
