traction control

Reading on my Sport build sheet, I have open differentials. However, reading about the SelecTrac Traction Control, it basically describes it like having a computer controlled LSD. So would adding a LSD prove any benefit? Or does the Traction Control do it all already? (4xe specific)

Hello All, 2020 JW JL Willys 12k miles I have 4-Service Lights illuminated on the dash. 1. Engine 2. ABS 3. 4WD 4. Traction 5. Cruise "not a light" *Took to dealer to fix. They said couldn't connect to computer and blamed it on an amp that had wires ran but nothing was connected to any...

so all of a sudden my 2022 JW JL Willys ABS n Traction Control n Service 4WD n No Cruise Control lights came on without warning. Took jeep to Auto Zone today and they tried to connect to computer but it kept failing saying to turn the ignition to ON. It was and even tried at all 3-positions...

Ok need some advice. 2020 JLUR 36,700 miles Does anyone know of a write up or video on replacing the ABS Module on the JL’s? Few weeks ago ABS/Traction Control/Service 4wd light etc came on. Started intermittent. Now stays on. Cans at dealership (at 35,400 or so miles) indicated front driver...

So we have owned our first Jeep for a year now and have had it in the shop 4 times for the same issue. The service electronic stability control light continues to come on. Which will get worse to the point that the check engine light has come on. As I said it has been to the deanship multiple...

So, I've been having this problem every time I go wheeling lately. Once I get back to pavement and I go to turn traction control back on it will turn on initially, but when I stop and the engine shuts off with the automatic start stop the traction control turns it self back off as soon as the...

I'm wondering how a LSD and traction control can go hand in hand on a Jeep? If a Jeep has LSD does traction control not work in that axle, or does traction control kick in before the LSD and therefore the LSD is pointless unless I completely turn off traction control?

2018 Wrangler JL (25,000 miles on vehicle all road & freeway). After driving into Rocky Mountains, 90 mile drive in good weather and snow, the traction control light comes on. This has happened at least 5 times, upon inspection the car smells of heat. Once the car cools and restarts the light...

Was curious as to any ideas why such a device is not already out? Would seam like a good alternative to lockers and a-lot more inexpensive as well as less risk to breaking axles, for less extreme off roading like snow trails and rutted areas etc. Any one know of the impracticalities of such a...

I have a 2018 JK I ordered from a dealership. It has 12,340 miles on it as of today. VIN #1C4AJWAG3JL836787. I drove it for about 4,000 miles then I put a 3.5 / 4 lift to level it, and placed 35’s on it. It is stunning. Yesterday Friday the 15th, I pulled out onto HWY 260 in Show Low...

We have an auto tranny, open diff, 2" lift, disco's and 33s on a Sahara. While in 4H your traction control plays with the brakes and other things to try to make the power go to the wheels that are not slipping. When you go into 4L the traction control is off but now you have completely...

The other day I turned off traction control and did a burn out and I noticed I had to sets of tire marks left on the road. I don't have a LSD so I was wondering how this was possible. I remember on old RWD cars that some had posi-traction. Do Jeeps?

With all the money spent on lockers and axles, I'm surprised no-one came up with a traction control map for rock crawling. It can potentially offer a much cheaper, less invasive solution for most people. I think the BLD can be better if it applied brakes more aggressively/quicker on...

I had the opportunity to take my Sport with LSD out onto a moderate trail with success. I wanted to tackle something a little tougher and tried going up a side trail and couldn’t get passed a rock shelf (not exactly an undercut). I had it in 4lo, 1st and had the pedal down quite a bit and the...

Hello All, This is my first post, and I must say that this is quite a fantastic forum from the people in it to the general ease and beauty the interface of this forum. I tried to use the search function on this forum but haven't found anything on this subject. Now to the subject... I have...
