Stability/Traction Control Switch
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln MKX and 2010 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The stability/traction control switch is hardwired to the Instrument Cluster (IC). The IC communicates switch status to the ABS module via the HS-CAN bus. The stability/traction control switch allows the driver to control use of the traction control system. This is independent of the ABS, ESC and RSC® functions, which cannot be switched off by the driver. Traction control system status is indicated by the stability/traction control indicator "sliding-car icon" in the IC . The system will automatically restore to full functionality when the ignition switch is cycled from OFF to RUN.
