The traction off indicator, which is located in the instrument panel cluster, turns OFF when ground is applied to the service traction control signal circuit. An inverting driver module is used in order to apply ground to the traction off indicator control circuit when indicator illumination is requested. The EBCM illuminates the traction off indicator if any of the following conditions are present.
- The EBCM inhibits the traction control system.
- The driver manually disables the traction control system by pressing the traction control switch.
- The automatic transmission shift lever is in the low (1) position.
The EBCM inhibits the traction control system when a TCS-disabling malfunction occurs, or when the automatic engagement feature is programmed to disable the TCS when the ignition is turned ON. Refer to Programming the Traction Control Automatic Engagement Feature .
