Traction control
ELECTRONICTRACTIONCONTROL
The purpose of electronic traction control, is
to aid traction when one wheel on an axle
spins whilst the other stillhas good grip, e.g,
if one side of the vehicle is on ice and the
other is on tarmac. The system works by
applying the brake to a spinning wheel in
order to transfer torque to the other side of
the axle.
NOTE: Traction control only operates below
approximately 60 mph (100 km/h).
The instrument panel has a traction control
warning light (TC) and, when appropriate,
traction control messages will also be
displayed in the message centre.
The warning light illuminates
whenever the system is active
(for a minimum of 2 seconds)
and is accompanied by the message centre
displaying ’TRACTION’. In the unlikelyevent
that traction control is used continuouslyfor
too long (in excess of approximately1
minute), then the control unit shuts down to
allow cooling and the warning light flashes for
at least ten seconds; this is accompanied by
the message centre displaying ’TRACTION
OVERHEAT’.
If there is a fault with the system, then the
warning light will illuminate continuouslyand
the message centre displays ’TRACTION
FAILURE’. If this occurs, you should contact a
Land Rover retailer at the earliest opportunity.
