TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM OFF INDICATOR CIRCUIT LOW
When the traction control system is in the "ON" state, the traction control LED (Light Emitting Diode) request from the EBTCM (Electronic Brake Traction Control Module) to the BCM (Body Control Module) circuit 832 is at battery voltage. In response, the BCM grounds circuit 1660. This action turns "ON" the traction LED indicating to the driver the traction control system is able to control wheel slip.
When the traction control system is in the "OFF" state, the traction control LED request from the EBTCM to the BCM circuit 832 is switched to ground. In response, the BCM switches "OFF" the traction control LED indicating to the driver the traction control system has been disabled.

CODE PARAMETERS
^ Ignition in "RUN" position
^ Traction control system is commanded "OFF"
^ Circuit 1660 is shorted to ground
^ Condition exists for 30 seconds

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
^ Check for poor connection at the BCM. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper terminal mating, broken connector locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals and poor terminal to wire connection (terminal crimped over wire insulation and not conductors).
^ Inspect wiring harness for damage. Check for broken or chaffed insulation.
^ Check for poor connection at the traction control switch.
^ If fault is suspected to be intermittent, wiggling harness wiring may help in locating fault.
