The traction control system in your vehicle exists as a driving aid during adverse conditions, such as rain, snow, ice, or poorly maintained roads. When the system is not working, it will illuminate a warning light on the dashboard cluster.

What it looks like:

The traction control warning light typically takes the form of the acronym “TC.” Sometimes this light is a small illuminated picture of a car losing control.

How this system works:

Traction control uses wheel speed sensors to detect when one or more of the car’s wheels lose grip and traction. When the system registers a loss of traction in one or more of the wheels, a computer will limit power to the wheels that are still in solid contact with the road to prevent a skid.

Common reasons for this to happen:

  • ABS is malfunctioning: Traction control and ABS (anti-lock braking system) often share the same control module and internal self-diagnostics system. As a result, sometimes an issue in the ABS can trigger the traction control light. If this is the case, then both the ABS and Traction Control lights will be on.

  • Broken wheel speed sensors: Wheel speed sensors are usually in the wheel bearing assembly, and determine the rate at which each wheel is moving. The sensors relay that information to the traction control module, which determines whether or not power needs to be shifted. Wheel speed sensors can get dirty or damaged and stop working, which prohibits the traction control module from knowing when to enable the system.

  • Traction control module is faulty: The traction control module – which, again, is often shared with the ABS – can malfunction and break altogether, causing the system to stop working.

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the traction control issue, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How important is this service?

It’s important to have the traction control issue investigated as soon as possible, as adverse driving conditions can arise at any time. While your car is unlikely to incur further damage from a faulty traction control system, it won’t be safe to drive in rain, snow, sleet, or other inclement weather, or even possibly through pools of water on the road. Furthermore, the issue that is causing the traction control light to illuminate could also be impacting the ABS.

Lexus IS300 L6-3.0L - Oil Change - San Jose, California
Rick was great. He called me to let me know he was slightly behind, and it didn't bother me at all. It was a late Saturday morning and I was just grateful the guy was even working. I ordered a synthetic oil change that came with a tire rotation. I think Rick was only going to do the oil change, so be sure to tell your mechanic you ordered both. He did everything he needed to do and more, with high attention to detail despite being late for his next appointment. He saw that my battery was corroded so he cleaned it off and sprayed it with sealant with me even asking him to! One thing - he left my keys in the ignition the whole time he worked (about 1.5 hours) with music on and everything. My car battery almost died. Lucky it didn't, or my review might not be so great! My car sputtered for a bit when I started my car later that day - it almost wouldn't start. All in all, due to the convenience and high level of quality, I'd definitely use this service again! Lastly, keep in mind that these mechanics are very on-the-go and probably don't get a chance to eat or drink. Offer them water and/or snacks! A happy mechanic = a happy car.
