Vehicle tests for evaluating performance of vehicle control devices are often time consuming, expensive, and not reproducible. The hardware-in-the-loop simulation(HILS) is promising on this matter since it provides cost effective ways of vehicle tests with repeatability. The HILS also has advantages over pure numerical simulation since the former can yield results with better credibility than the latter by incorporating actual control components in numerical simulation environment. A HILS system for TCS ECU has been developed in this research. Using the system, commercial TCS modules have been tested.<br/>
