Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) and the engine control module (ECM) simultaneously control the traction control. The ECM reduces the amount of torque supplied to the drive wheels and the EBCM actively applies the brakes to the front wheels in order to reduce torque. The EBCM sends a GMLAN serial data message to the engine control module (ECM) indicating the function that has been requested.
