Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2011 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2011 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) monitors traction control system (TCS) activation in order to calculate an estimate of the EBCM solenoid valve temperatures. In most cases high solenoid valve temperatures are caused by extended TCS activation. If the EBCM calculates that the solenoid valve temperatures are too high, the EBCM will temporarily suspend the traction control system function until the solenoid valves cool.
