Traction Control Switch
Unlike conventional ABS, the traction control portion of the AdvanceTrac® can be deactivated by the driver through the use of the traction control switch. The switch is hardwired to the IPC. When pressed, the switch sends a ground signal to the IPC. The IPC then sends a message over the HS-CAN bus indicating that the driver has requested that the system be deactivated and illuminates the sliding-car OFF icon. Once disabled, the system remains in that state until the driver presses the switch again or the ignition key is cycled.
