The TC slash displayed on the car indicates that the traction control is turned off. The introduction and working principle of TC are as follows: Introduction to TC: TC is the traction control system, which can improve the vehicle's passability. When the ABS anti-lock braking system detects that some wheels are slipping, it will apply braking to the slipping wheels to prevent the loss of traction on them. When the system is working, the yellow TC indicator light on the dashboard flashes to alert the driver. Working principle of TC: The traction control system relies on electronic sensors to detect when the driven wheel speed is lower than that of the driving wheels. It then sends a signal to adjust the ignition timing, reduce the throttle opening, decrease the throttle, downshift, or brake the wheels, thereby preventing the wheels from slipping.
