VSA System Description - VSA OFF MODE

Overview

When the VSA OFF switch is pressed, the VSA OFF indicator will illuminate and the VSA will go into the OFF mode. In the VSA OFF mode, the TCS control is changed, but the other controls will not turn off.

TCS Control During VSA OFF mode

	If the TCS activates, the VSA indicator blinks while the VSA OFF indicator is still on.
	By terminating the TCS function at low speeds, the driver can gain traction on loose sand or deep snow.
	During a standing start from varying road surfaces under the left and right side of the vehicle, the TCS function helps gain traction.
	When the vehicle is on a lift while being serviced and its tires are not in contact with any surface, the wheel speed will not exceed 31 mph (50 km/h).
	The TCS function is fully disabled when the VSA maintenance mode is activated.
