What happens if the TCS or DSC is not working?
If the TCS or DSC is operating, the indicator light flashes. If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and they may not operate correctly. Take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer. In addition to the indicator light flashing, a slight lugging sound will come from the engine.
How does the Mazda DSC and TCS work?
The system guards against skidding by optimally controlling engine output and the braking force applied to each wheel through the combined control of the 4-wheel antilock braking system and the Traction Control System (TCS).
When does the TCS / DSC indicator light flash?
TCS/DSC Indicator Light. This indicator light stays on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON. If the TCS or DSC is operating, the indicator light flashes. If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and they may not operate correctly.
How does the traction control system ( TCS ) work?
The Traction Control System (TCS) enhances traction and safety by controlling engine torque and braking. When the TCS detects driving wheel slippage, it lowers engine torque and operates the brakes to prevent loss of traction.
