Traction Control Desired Torque
Scan tool range 0 percent to 100 percent. Represents the PWM signal from the electronic brake and traction control module. The EBTCM reduces the Traction Control Desired Torque signal pulse width when a drive wheel slippage situation is detected. The PCM monitors the Traction Control Desired Torque signal and reduces drive wheel slippage as necessary by retarding spark timing, or increasing air/fuel ratio. The PCM can also turn OFF up to three fuel injectors if the Traction Control Desired Torque signal indicates a large enough amount of drive wheel slippage. A problem with the Traction Control Desired Torque signal should cause a DTC to set.
