What does TC mean in a car?

[DiJosie]

When the "TC" indicator light on the car dashboard flashes, it means the "Traction Control System" is active. "TC" is the abbreviation for Traction-Control-System, which refers to the traction control system or anti-slip regulation system. Here are some details about the traction control system: 1. The traction control system relies on the electronic sensors of the ABS anti-lock braking system. When it detects that the speed of the driven wheel is lower than that of the driving wheel, indicating wheel slip, it sends a feedback signal to the car's system. The car system then adjusts the ignition timing, reduces the throttle opening, decreases the throttle, downshifts, or applies the brakes to prevent wheel slip. 2. The traction control system can transfer power to the road surface to avoid slipping, while also allowing the car to follow the driver's intentions, thereby improving driving safety.
