The TCS prevents uncontrolled wheelspin under acceleration and on slippery surfaces. The TCS works in conjunction with the ABS.
System Switches
A pressure switch in the TCS actuator is activated at a pressure of 6 bars and this illuminates a TCS function light on the instrument panel informing the driver that the TCS system is operating and attempting to counteract wheelspin. If the system develops a fault, the "TCS CTRL" warning light will be illuminated permanently. However, if the TCS system has been in operation for a long time, the "TCS CTRL" warning light will flash to inform the driver that the TCS system is temporarily inoperative in order to prevent overheating of the brakes.
If a fault arises on the road a back-up mode can be engaged by fully-releasing the accelerator pedal then depressing it again. In this mode the throttle is operated by a cable. In back-up mode engine performance will be limited, the accelerator pedal will be stiffer and the cruise-control and air-conditioning systems will be inoperative. Further testing of the system is best left to a SAAB dealer. It is not possible to make any adjustment to the system.
