In addition to wheel speed sensors, ESC systems also require a _____.

A) steering angle sensor
B) lateral-acceleration sensor
C) yaw sensor
D) all answers are correct

Steering Angle Sensor

A sensor that measures the angle of the steering wheel and the rate at which it is turned, providing vital data for vehicle stability and steering systems.

Lateral-Acceleration Sensor

A sensor that detects the side-to-side acceleration of a vehicle, often used in stability control systems.

Yaw Sensor

A device in vehicles that detects the rotational movement around the vertical axis, critical for stability and traction control systems.

  • Comprehending the application and identification of sensors within vehicle stability and brake control mechanisms.

Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
ESC systems require all of these sensors, as they work together to detect and correct unstable driving conditions. The steering angle sensor helps determine the direction the driver intends to steer, while the lateral-acceleration sensor and yaw sensor track the vehicle's movement in relation to its center of gravity.
