G EN ER A L DESC RIPTIO N

If the throttle is opened excessively when a vehicle is
started or accelerated, the driving wheels may slip
due to excessive drive torque. This adversely affects
startability, accelerating ability or controllability. To
ensure startability, accelerating ability and
controllability, this TCL system will prevent wheel slip
by controlling (applying) brake fluid pressure to the
drive wheels to adjust the driving torque according to
road conditions. Each wheel-speed sensor detects
wheel speed and converts it to an electric signal. The

ABS-ECU determines which wheel begins to slip
according to that signal. If the ABS-ECU determines
wheel slip, it activates the solenoid valves and the
pump inside the hydraulic unit to prevent the wheel
slip by applying brake ensuring controllability. This
TCL system is controlled by the ABS-ECU, and the
TCL components are shared by the ABS system. If
the ABS hydraulic unit is faulty, the ABS-ECU must
be replaced.
