PINPOINT TEST AB: THE TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR IS NEVER/ALWAYS ON


Test AB1-AB3:






Normal Operation
The traction control status is monitored by the anti-lock brake system/traction control (ABS/TC) module. When the traction control is in active mode, a traction active status message is sent to the instrument cluster from the ABS/TC module over the standard corporate protocol (SCP) network, circuits 4-EG8 (GY/VT) and 5-EG8 (BU/WH).

Possible Causes
- ABS/TC module
- instrument cluster
