Traction Control System Off Indicator

When the traction control system is in the On state, the traction control Light Emitting Diode (LED) request from the Electronic Brake Traction Control Module (EBTCM) to the BCM circuit 832 is at battery voltage. In response, the BCM grounds circuit 1660. This action turns On the traction control LED indicating to the driver the traction control system is able to react to slippery conditions.

When the traction control system is in the Off state, the traction control LED request from the EBTCM to the BCM circuit 832 is switched to ground. In response, the ECM switches OFF the traction control LED indicating to the driver the traction control system has been disabled.
