What does TCS stand for?
1 Answers
TCS stands for: TCS is the Traction Control System, also known as the Track Control System. It determines whether the drive wheels are slipping by comparing the rotational speed of the drive wheels with that of the transmission wheels. When the former exceeds the latter, it suppresses the speed of the drive wheels as an anti-slip control system, which operates very similarly to the ABS, with both using sensors and brake regulators. Methods by which TCS controls wheel slip: 1. When the drive wheels slip, it uses the brake system to increase the brake fluid pressure on the slipping wheel, applying appropriate braking to limit wheel slip; 2. Additionally, it controls the engine's power output by delaying ignition timing, reducing fuel injection volume, or adjusting valve opening to decrease the driving force on the drive wheels and prevent them from slipping.
