TRACTION CONTROL - SERVICE APPLICATION

GENERAL

While under the control of an antilock traction controller,
the ATR-2

valve’s solenoid is able to initiate a brake

application that allows the traction system to control wheel

spin upon acceleration under 25 mph. When wheel spin is
detected and the vehicle is stopped, or moving at any speed
up to 25 mph, the antilock traction controller instantly
energizes the solenoid in the ATR-2

valve which then

applies air to each of the rear axle modulators as shown in
Figure 12. The modulators are equipped with solenoid valves
