Snow Mode Switch: Description

The snow mode switch signal is sent to the "unified meter and A/C amp." from the snow mode switch. The "unified meter and A/C amp." then sends the signal to the ECM via the CAN communication line.

The snow mode is used for driving or starting the vehicle on snowy roads or slippery areas. If the snow mode is activated, the vehicle speed will not accelerates as quickly as normal to avoid vehicle slip. In other words, ECM controls rapid engine torque change by controlling the electric throttle control actuator operating speed.
