DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 70-21
ETC
The ETC function uses brake intervention to prevent wheel spin and maintain even torque distribution to the wheels.
ETC is automatically enabled while the brakes are off at speeds up to 62.5 mph (100 km/h), and operates the brakes
either individually or in axle pairs:
lAt speeds up to 31.3 mph (50 km/h), ETC uses individual brake intervention to maintain even torque distribution
between wheels on the same axle.
lVehicles up to 03 model year – At speeds between 0 and 62.5 mph (0 and 100 km/h), ETC also uses brake
intervention in axle pairs to maintain even torque distribution between the front and rear axles. In effect, this mode
of operation replaces the centre differential lock of the transfer box which, although still incorporated, is non
operational under normal driving conditions.

+ TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description. If the centre differential
lock is in the locked condition, the SLABS ECU illuminates the ABS and ETC warning lamps and inhibits the ETC
function (the ABS, EBD and HDC functions are retained, but at degraded performance levels).
lVehicles from 03 model year (with differential lock fitted) – At speeds between 0 and 62.5 mph (0 and 100
km/h), ETC uses brake intervention in axle pairs to maintain even torque distribution between the front and rear
axles. If the centre differential lock is in the locked condition, the differential lock warning lamp in the instrument
pack is illuminated. The ABS, EBD, ETC and HDC functions are retained, but with revised parameters to suit the
locked differential.
While the ETC function is enabled, if the SLABS ECU detects a wheel accelerating faster than the average, indicating
loss of traction, it operates the ABS modulator in the active braking mode. Depending on the vehicle speed, active
braking is employed for either the brake of the affected wheel or for both brakes on the affected axle, until all four
wheels are driven at approximately the same speed again. During active braking the SLABS ECU also illuminates the
ETC warning lamp, for a minimum of 2 seconds or for the duration that ETC is active. ETC operation is desensitised
during 'hard' cornering.
HDC
HDC uses brake intervention to provide a controlled descent ability in off road conditions when engine braking is
insufficient to maintain a comfortable speed. This allows the driver to leave HDC selected and to control the vehicle's
descent speed, down to the system's minimum target speed, using only the accelerator pedal. The HDC function is
selected on/off by a switch on the fascia. When selected on, HDC is enabled in all forward gears and reverse provided:
lVehicle speed is below 31.3 mph (50 km/h).
lThe transfer box is in low range.
lOn manual gearbox vehicles, the clutch is engaged.
When HDC is enabled, the HDC information warning lamp illuminates. If HDC is selected outside the above
conditions, the HDC information warning lamp flashes and the audible warning sounds continuously.
When HDC is enabled, the SLABS ECU calculates a target speed from the throttle position element of the engine data
input, and compares this with actual speed. If the actual speed is higher than the target speed, the SLABS ECU
operates the ABS modulator in the active braking mode to slow the vehicle down to the target speed. While the braking
force is being applied, the SLABS ECU also energizes the brake lamp relay to put the brake lamps on. Active braking
is discontinued while vehicle speed is below the target speed or if the foot brakes are applied. Applying the foot brakes
during active braking may result in a pulse through the brake pedal, which is normal.
During active braking, the brakes are operated predominantly on the wheels of the leading axle, but if that is not
sufficient to achieve the required deceleration the brakes of the trailing axle are also applied. The deceleration rate is
dependent on the speed differential between initial vehicle speed and the target speed. The deceleration rates are
relatively low at higher speed differentials, then progressively increase as vehicle speed approaches the target speed.
Anti-lock braking is also enabled during active braking, but at very low speeds some wheel lock can occur.
The target speed increases as the accelerator pedal is pressed, from a programmed minimum with the accelerator
pedal released, up to a maximum of 31.3 mph (50 km/h). For any given accelerator pedal position, while travelling
uphill or on level ground the target speed is always greater than the corresponding vehicle speed, which allows the
vehicle to be driven normally without HDC intervention. However, when travelling downhill, the gravitational effect on
the vehicle means that for any given accelerator pedal position the target speed is less than the corresponding vehicle
speed, and HDC intervenes to limit vehicle speed to the target speed.

SUNROOF
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 76-6-13
Operation
Ignition switched-off timeout
There are three timeout modes for operating the sunroof assemblies after the ignition is switched off. The BCU
determines the vehicle's timeout mode. The three modes are:
lWhen the ignition is switched off, no sunroof operation is permitted.
lWhen the ignition is switched off, sunroof remains functional for 45 seconds or until the driver door is opened.
lWhen the ignition is switched off, sunroof remains functional for 45 seconds or until any door is opened.
Sunroof open and close
Both sunroof assemblies operate in the same manner. The front sunroof assembly has one switch while there are
two switches to control rear sunroof assembly, a rear sunroof front switch and a rear sunroof rear switch.
The sunroof ECU monitors the position of the sunroof microswitch to determine if the sunroof is to be tilted or opened.
In order for the sunroof to operate, either of the following conditions must exist:
lIgnition switch in position II.
lIgnition switched from on to off, doors closed (this may enable the system to operate for 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, or until a door is opened).
When the sunroof is closed, pressing the rear of the sunroof switch causes the sunroof ECU to operate the sunroof
motor and open the sunroof. When the sunroof opens, the sunroof microswitch opens. The sunroof continues to
open until the switch is released or the sunroof reaches the fully open position.
When the sunroof is open, pressing the front of the sunroof switch causes the sunroof ECU to operate the sunroof
motor and close the sunroof. The sunroof ECU continues to operate the motor until the sunroof microswitch closes.
This indicates to the sunroof ECU that the sunroof is fully closed.
Sunroof tilt
Both sunroof assemblies operate in the same manner. The front sunroof assembly has one switch while there are
two switches to control rear sunroof assembly, a rear sunroof front switch and a rear sunroof rear switch.
The sunroof ECU monitors the position of the sunroof microswitch to determine if the sunroof is to be tilted or opened.
In order for the sunroof to operate, either of the following conditions must exist.
lIgnition in position II.
lIgnition switched from on to off, doors closed (this may enable the system to operate for 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, or until a door is opened).
When the sunroof is closed and the front of the sunroof switch is pressed, the sunroof ECU detects the combination
of closed microswitch and front of sunroof switch being pressed and tilts the rear of the sunroof. This causes the
microswitch to open. The sunroof continues to open until the switch is released or the sunroof reaches the fully open
position.
When the sunroof is tilted and the rear of the sunroof switch is pressed, the sunroof ECU detects the combination of
open microswitch and rear of sunroof switch and closes the sunroof until the microswitch closes. This indicates to the
sunroof ECU that the sunroof is fully closed.
Rear sunroof isolation
The rear sunroof isolation switch prevents the rear sunroof rear switch from operating the rear sunroof. This can be
used to prevent small children sitting in the rear seat from playing with the rear sunroof.
Pressing the rear sunroof isolation switch opens the circuit between the rear sunroof rear switch and the sunroof ECU.
The sunroof ECU ignores the rear sunroof switch until the rear sunroof isolation switch is pressed and the circuit
closes.
