It consists of vehicle control systems such as gateway ECU, data link connector 3, 4WD control ECU, airbag sensor assembly center, distance control ECU, engine control module, power steering ECU, seat belt control ECU, skid control ECU (w/ vehicle dynamics integrated management), skid control ECU with actuator (w/o vehicle dynamics integrated management), steering sensor and yaw rate sensor. Gateway ECU has communication circuit to correspond with different types of communication data. Different types of communication data can be shared among communication parts after it goes through gateway ECU.
