Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The traction control switch is used to switch the traction control system on or off. When the traction control switch is pressed, the IPC receives a ground signal from the switch and illuminates the stability-traction control OFF indicator. The IPC sends a traction control switch message to the GWM over the HS-CAN3 and the GWM relays this message to the ABS module over the HS-CAN2. The ABS module takes the necessary action depending on the switch inputs and traction control message.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Condition |
|---|---|---|
| ABS C1109:64 | Vehicle Dynamics Control Switch: Signal Plausibility Failure | Sets when the ABS module detects the traction control switch pressed in the applied position for longer than 15 seconds. This can be due to a wiring concern in the traction control circuit or an internal failure of the traction control switch. |
