TC sign on the car refers to the Traction Control System, which relies on ABS anti-lock braking system electronic sensors. When it detects that the speed of the driven wheel is lower than that of the driving wheel, it sends a feedback signal to the car system. The car system will then adjust the ignition timing, reduce the throttle opening, decrease the throttle, downshift or brake the wheels accordingly to prevent wheel slippage. The Traction Control System uses the steering wheel angle sensor to understand the driver's steering intention and utilizes the left and right wheel speed sensors to detect the speed difference between the wheels, thereby determining whether the car's steering degree matches the driver's steering intention.
