Traction Control Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation

Traction Control Indicators (w/NW7)
LOW TRACTION
The low traction indicator is part of the traction control switch. The EBCM applies ground to the traction control active signal circuit in order to illuminate the low traction indicator during a traction control event.

TRACTION OFF
The traction off indicator, which is part of the traction control switch, turns OFF when ground is applied to the service traction control signal circuit. The EBCM illuminates the traction off indicator if any of the following conditions are present.
^ The EBCM inhibits the traction control system.
^ The driver manually disables the traction control system by pressing the traction control switch.
^ The automatic transmission shift lever is in the low (1) position.
The EBCM inhibits the traction control system when a TCS-disabling malfunction occurs, or when the automatic engagement feature is programmed to disable the TCS when the ignition is turned ON. Refer to Programming the Traction Control Automatic Engagement Feature.
