C0640 Description

 

The Continuously Variable Road Sensing Suspension (CVRSS) module estimates the road surface and communicates that information to the Electronic Brake Control module (EBCM). The CVRSS module provides a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal to the EBCM through the left and right normal force signal circuits. The CVRSS module sends each normal force value twice to the EBCM. The possible values of the PWM duty cycle are 20%, 40%, 60% and 80%, with the valid range from 10-90%. The EBCM uses this information to provide improved rough-road braking performance.
