DPB Corner Stiffness Test

Applies pressure to each individual corner in turn to compare the output values and validate the brakes. If executing with DIAG_LINK_ACTIVE then EPBs will release one at a time, which is required if CHECK_SWAPPED_REAR_LINES is true.

DPB Swapped Rear Lines Check

Applies pressure to each individual corner in turn to compare the output values and validate the brakes. If executing with DIAG_LINK_ACTIVE then EPBs will release one at a time, which is required if CHECK_SWAPPED_REAR_LINES is true.

IBST Stiffness Test - Burnished - Pressure

Measures the brake system stiffness of burnished brakes and tests the brake pedal switch. Stiffness threshold is selected based on chassis and brake hardware type.

IBST Stiffness Test - Burnished/Unburnished

Measures the brake system stiffness. Select burnished or unburnished to determine the pass/fail threshold. Stiffness threshold is selected based on chassis and brake hardware type. Stiffness by wheel circuit is also measured, but not used for pass/fail.
