The traction control switch is a normally open switch that closes when the switch is activated. When activated, the switch supplies signal ground to the traction control ground signal circuit. The powertrain interface module (PIM) converts the signal ground input into serial data, which is used by the ABS-TCS electronic control unit (ECU) to enable or disable traction control, and by the instrument cluster to display traction control status.
