If you have this feature, this brake only Traction Control complements
your anti-lock braking system.
Traction Control regulates tire spin during low-speed acceleration and
steady driving.
The Traction Control Brake-Only System uses the same wheel speed
sensors used by your Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS). When wheel slip is
detected by the wheel sensors, the electronic control module sends a
signal to the brake pressure modulator to apply pressure pulses to the
brakes. Traction is then maximized and your vehicle is enabled to
accelerate or continue driving with a controlled amount of tire slip. This
low-speed system controls tire slippage and is fully functional until you
reach
a speed of 24 mph and then the traction control is gradually phased
out as your vehicle reaches
30 mph. To keep you informed of changing
road conditions the “TRACTION
ACTIVE” telltale light will illuminate
when the system
is activated.
-
Because this is a brake only Traction Control system, it is designed to
protect your vehicles powertrain components. The system
will
temporarily by disabled should the brakes or transaxle reach excessively
high temperatures and prolonged use
of traction control. The
“TRACTION
OFF” telltale light in the instrument panel informs you
when this system is not in operation.
ELECTRONIC LEVEL CONTROL
This keeps your vehicle level.
The ignition does not have to be
“ON” for the level control to work. The
system consists
of an electronic height sensor, a small electric air
compressor, and air adjustable shock absorbers mounted on the rear
of
the vehicle.
If the system has a slight leak, the air compressor will run frequently for a
few seconds each time.
For a massive air leak, the air compressor will stay on
for approximately 7
minutes. You should see your dealer for service, but you can keep driving
your Cadillac.
