Traction Control Demand🔗

This module is responsible for determining when to activate and deactivate traction control. It also sets some of the inputs for the Traction Control Regulation module, which controls the behavior of traction control when it's activated.

Traction control is enabled when all of the following conditions are met:

  • Traction Control Mode = Conventional TC (the feature has been enabled by the tuner).

  • Engine speed exceeds Traction Control Engine Speed Threshold

  • Throttle position exceeds Traction Control Throttle Position Threshold
  • Vehicle speed exceeds Traction Control Vehicle Speed Threshold
  • If a traction control arming switch is fitted, the switch must be active (ON).
  • At least 1 left or right wheel speed sensor must be fitted in the front and in the back.

If all conditions are met, the feature will indicate its readiness, by setting Traction Control Allowed to TRUE. At this point, traction control will be activated and deactivated by the amount of slip detected:

  • TC Becomes active when Slip exceeds Slip Setpoint.

  • TC is deactivated when Slip falls below Slip Setpoint minus Slip Setpoint Threshold Hysteresis. However, traction control will also be deactivated if any one of the criteriea for enabling the feature are lost:

  • Egnine speed falls below Traction Control Engine Speed Threshold minus Traction Control Engine Speed Threshold Hysteresis.

  • Throttle position falls below Traction Control Throttle Position Threshold minus Traction Control Throttle Position Threshold Hystersis.
  • Vehicle speed falls below Traction Control Vehicle Speed Threshold minus Traction Control Vehicle Speed Threshold Hysteresis.
  • The traction control arming switch is turned OFF (if fitted).
