ABS mode.
If then the pressure reduction is not sufficient to
reduce the rear wheel slip, a normal ABS operation
will take place.
The EBD uses a select low logic on the rear wheels,
that is, the condition of the rear wheel with the least
amount of traction is duplicated on the opposing
wheel.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)
ABS Indicator Light
Sensor and Tone Wheel — Front
This light will illuminate each time the ignition is turned
to the ON position and will go out after approximately
2 seconds. In the event that the ABS light remains on,
or illuminates constantly while driving, this indicates
that the ABS function is disabled. and should receive
immediate attention to restore the benefits of the ABS
features. If the fault is of a temporary nature, the ABS
will reset on the next ignition cycle and the light will
then return to normal operation. However, a fault code
will be stored in the ECU - see Diagnosis and Testing
later in this section.
NOTE: Most malfunctions in the ABS system will
cause the indicator light to illuminate indicating the
system has been disabled. Normal braking is not
affected unless the brake warning light is also

illuminated.
Traction Control (TCS) Indicator Light
This light will illuminate, along with the ABS light, each
time the ignition is turned to the ON position and will
go out after approximately 3 seconds. If the traction
control light flashes while driving this indicates that
one or both of the drive wheels are spinning and that
the TCS is applying brakes and/or reducing engine
power. In the event that the traction control light
remains on, or illuminates constantly while driving,
this indicates that the function is disabled. If it cannot
be enabled by pressing the traction control on/off
switch it should receive immediate attention to restore
the benefits of the traction control features.

light will then return to normal operation. However, a
fault code will be stored in the ECU - see Diagnosis
and Testing later in this section.
NOTE: The traction control light can be illuminated by
turning the traction control off with the switch on the
dash. If only the traction control light is on, the ABS
function is not affected.
Traction Control Switch (TCS)
The TCS is used to toggle the traction control feature
on/off depending on the driver’s preference at the
time. When the traction control is turned off, the
indicator light will illuminate and stay on until the
system is again reactivated. The system may be
reactivated by pressing the switch again.
