Stability-Traction Control Disabled Indicator (Sliding Car OFF Icon)

The stability-traction control is configured on/off through the message center. When the driver enables or disables the stability-traction control system, the ABS  module sends the stability-traction control disabled indicator request message to the GWM  over the Electric Vehicle (EV) High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN). The GWM  sends the stability-traction control disabled indicator request message to the BCM  over the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN). The BCM sends the stability-traction control disabled indicator request message to the IPC  over the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN). The IPC  illuminates or turns off the stability-traction control disabled indicator (sliding car OFF icon) based upon the system state.

When a MyKey® administrator has set the AdvanceTrac® feature to always on and a MyKey® programmed key is in use, the stability-traction control system cannot be disabled. The menu selection in the message center used to disable the stability-traction control system does not display when a MyKey® is in use, but remains active for the MyKey® administrator to select the AdvanceTrac® always on feature off. The stability-traction control indicator still functions normally to indicate a stability-traction control system fault and a stability-traction control active event.
