DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL
OUTLINEA6E692067650201•The construction and operation of DSC is the same as that of the current Mazada6 2WD model, except for the
following:
— Due to the addition the 4WD model, DSC HU/CM uses the foward-G signal from the combine sensor to
control DSC.
—Due to adoption of the 4WD CM, DSC HU/CM sends a coupling torque request, a 4-wheel speed, and DSC
operation condition signal to the 4WD CM through CAN.
—Due to the adoption of TCM, DSC HU/CM sends a 4-wheel speed signal to the TCM through CAN.

End Of SieCOMBINE SENSOR (FORWARD-G SENSOR)A6E692067650202Function
•The forward-G sensor is integrated with the combine sensor to detect and calculate the vehicle forward-G force
and change in voltage to the DSC HU/CM.
Structure/Operation
•The drive train of 4WD vehicles delivers driving force to all four wheels, and due to this interlocking, the speed
of all wheels during braking is the same. When driving on road surfaces with especially low m (friction
coefficient), it is difficult to estimate the vehicle speed based on the wheel speed, and DSC braking becomes
unreliable. (For 2WD vehicles, the front and rear wheels are independent, so it is possible to accurately
estimate the vehicle speed by measuring the difference between the rotation speeds of the front and rear tires.)
A forward-G sensor has been installed to overcome this situation. When braking, the change in G-force is
detected, and the road surface m is judged (low m, high m), enabling a correction of the vehicle speed
estimation.
•The output voltage characteristic for the combine sensor is 2.5 V when the vehicle is standing still, and
changes accordingly as forward-G is formed.
•Forward-G is formed when the sensor detects an inertial force created by, and in proportion to, a G- force
acting on a silicon detection component.

CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN)A6E692067650203•ABS (ABS/TCS) or DSC HU/CM transmit/receive information through CAN. Due to the addition of TCM, 4WD
CM, and the MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine model, the following information has been changed. For detailed
information on CAN, see the “CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK.” (See T–3 OUTLINE.)
Transmitted Information
•Coupling torque request (to 4WD CM)
•DSC operating condition (to 4WD CM)
Received Information
•Coupling torque (from 4WD CM)
•Shift position (from TCM)
•Fuel injection information (only MZR-CD (RF Turbo), from PCM)

PRECAUTION (BRAKES)A6E691001020201Wheels and Tires Removal/Installation
1. The removal and installation procedures for the wheels and tires are not mentioned in this section. When a
wheel is removed, tighten it to 88—118 N·m {9.0—12.0 kgf·m, 65.0—87.0 ft·lbf}.
Brake Lines Disconnection/Connection
Caution
•Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. If brake fluid does get on a painted surface, wipe it off
immediately.
1. Tighten the brake pipe flare nut using the SST (49 0259 770B). Be sure to modify the brake pipe flare nut
tightening torque to allow for use of a torque wrench-SST combination.
•If any brake line has been disconnected anytime during the procedure, add brake fluid, bleed the brakes,
and inspect for leakage after the procedure has been completed.
Connectors Disconnection
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable before doing any work that requires handling of connectors. Reconnect
the negative battery cable only after the work is completed.
ABS, ABS/TCS, or DSC Components Operations
1. Make sure that there are no DTCs in the ABS, ABS/TCS, or DSC memory after working on ABS, ABS/TCS or
DSC components.
•If there are any DTCs in the memory, clear them.
