Transmission Control Switch (TCS)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2010 Mercury Milan, 2010 Mercury Mariner, 2010 Mercury Grand Marquis, 2010 Lincoln Town Car, and 2010 Lincoln Navigator L. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The TCS signals the PCM with VPWR whenever the TCS is pressed. On vehicles with this feature, the TCIL illuminates when the TCS is cycled to disengage overdrive.
