Low Traction Indicator Always On

Step 1-6:





Circuit Description
The Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) turns ON the Low Trac indicator by grounding the EBCM Low Trac indicator control circuit. When the EBCM detects that the traction control system is activated, the Low Trac indicator will illuminate.

Diagnostic Aids
Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction.

The following are possible causes of the malfunction:
- A short to ground in the Low Trac indicator control circuit
- An internal EBCM malfunction
- An internal Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) malfunction If an intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent and Poor Connections Diagnostic Aids.

Test Description
The numbers in the image, refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.
