Condition

Some customers may comment on traction control activation at low speeds, usually below 8 km/h (5 mph). This condition will not turn on any indicator lights on the instrument panel, but a scan tool will reveal DTC C0710 5A set as history in the EBCM.

Correction

A revised electronic brake control calibration has been developed to address this issue. Reprogram the electronic brake control module (EBCM) with updated calibration files using the TIS2WEB Service Programming System (SPS) application. As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software version.
