What does TRC mean on a car?
1 Answers
TRC on a car stands for Traction Control System, and TRC OFF means the Traction Control System is turned off. When the TRC light is on, it is likely that the TRC button was accidentally turned off. If it wasn't turned off, it indicates that there is an issue with the Traction Control System preventing it from functioning properly. The role of the Traction Control System is to ensure the car obtains optimal traction under various driving conditions. The control device is a computer that monitors the speed of all four wheels and the steering wheel's turning angle. When the car accelerates, if the computer detects a significant speed difference between the driving wheels and non-driving wheels, it immediately determines that the driving force is too high and sends a signal to reduce the engine's fuel supply, thereby lowering the driving force and reducing the slip rate of the driving wheels.
