Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) and the powertrain control module (PCM) simultaneously control the Traction Control System (TCS). The PCM sends a Delivered Torque message via a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal to the EBCM. The duty cycle of the signal is used to determine how much engine torque the PCM is delivering. Normal values are between 10 and 90 percent duty cycle. The EBCM supplies the pull up voltage that the PCM switches to ground to create the signal.
