on an axle is spinning faster than the other, the system
will apply the brake of the spinning wheel and allow
more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not
spinning.

mentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON.
This will occur even if you used the switch to turn the

previously.
•The Traction Control System will make buzzing or
clicking sounds when it is active.

System. Refer to Section 4 of this manual.
Traction Sys Disabled
This message will be displayed if the Traction Control
System has been turned off using the switch, or if there is
a temporary condition that will will result in partial or no
Traction Control System function. The “Traction Control
Indicator Light” will be on when the system is disabled
or only partial function is allowed. The “TRACTION SYS
DISABLED” message and the “Traction Control Indicator
Light” being illuminated without the switch being de-
pressed is not an indication that service of the electronic
brake system is required.Service Elec Brake System
This message will be displayed if a condition exists that
may require servicing the electronic brake system. When
this message is displayed and the “Traction Control
Indicator Light” is on, there is a malfunction of the
Traction Control System. If the “SERVICE ELEC BRAKE
SYSTEM” message continues to be displayed after sev-
eral ignition cycles and the vehicle has been driven
several miles at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h),
see your authorized dealer for service.
