What does the automotive EPC refer to?
1 Answers
Automotive EPC refers to the Electronic Stability Program (ESP), where a constantly illuminated indicator light signifies a malfunction in the engine or electronic systems. If this light remains on or flashes after ignition or during driving, it indicates that the management system has detected a fault in the engine's electronic system. The Electronic Stability Program is a general term for systems or programs designed to enhance vehicle handling performance while effectively preventing loss of control when the vehicle reaches its dynamic limits. The ESP improves vehicle safety and handling by supporting the functions of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and ASR (Acceleration Slip Regulation, also known as Traction Control System). It analyzes vehicle state information from various sensors and sends corrective commands to ABS and ASR to help maintain dynamic balance.
