d)
Figure 1 below shows a vehicle which has taken a curve at very high speed, but
since the road was slippery, the rear of the car swings to one side. With an aid of
sketch, explain what condition it is and how Electronic Stability Programme will act on
the vehicle without braking applied condition.

The voltage signal from an upstream O2S should have seven cross counts within 5 seconds with the engine running without a load at 2,500 rpm. Engine control systems monitor the activity of the O2S and store a code when the sensors output is not within the desired range.arrow_forward
