Advanced ABS & Electronic Stability Control

VSC13 A Bosch Certified Course

This course is for garage technicians who carry out diagnostic and repair work on Anti-lock Braking (ABS), Traction Control (ASR) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC / ESP) systems as fitted to modern passenger vehicles.

The course aim is to provide delegates with a working knowledge of selected active braking control safety systems and equip them with the necessary diagnostic skills required for fault diagnosis on the wider range of systems.

The knowledge gained on this course will enable confident and efficient fault evaluation on late model electronic braking systems. This will lead to safer and more accurate fault diagnosis and subsequent repair.

The minimum prerequisites for this advanced vehicle systems course are the successful completion of courses VSE1, VSTD9, and VSC6. Attendance on course VSE7 will also aid in understanding the sensor technologies employed. Delegates are expected to be experienced in typical oscilloscope and diagnostic tester operation and should have attended the appropriate equipment operator’s courses. The course is divided into linked modules to aid in the effective delivery of the course material.

Modules and subject areas:

  • ABS working theory overview and associated controls
  • Select Low operation and Cumulative Yaw Deceleration
  • Traction Control methods, ECU control and implementation
  • Vehicle stability methods on early ABS systems
  • Engine Drag Torque Control and Electronic Brake Distribution
  • Bosch Electronic Stability Program systems
  • Active wheel speed sensor technology

On successful completion of VSC13 delegates will be able to:

  • Carry out diagnostic test routines on active braking control systems and their individual components, utilising all available data for the evaluation of vehicle faults. They will be able to identify the system and component faults that require replacement or repair where appropriate and complete comprehensive system tests to ensure full serviceability and safe operation
  • The tests and practical tasks will be carried out using Bosch test equipment, service information, training notes and course material.
