TCS, and SCS System Diagnostics and Repairs

Berks Auto Repair: TCS and SCS System Diagnostics and Repairs

Reliable Expert Traction and Stability Control Services in Reading PA

 If the TCS warning light or SCS light turns on, pay attention right away, because such indicators reveal flaws in your vehicle’s Traction Control System (TCS) and Stability Control System (SCS) which are key for keeping the car stable and gripping the road properly. Our TCS and SCS team provides inspections and repairs that help keep your car safe when the roads become slippery.

If you notice anything from skids during braking to poor car control or lit warning signs, we are able to solve the problem fast and at an understandable cost. We are known as leading mechanics for TCS and SCS issues in Reading, PA.

Why It’s Important to Understand TCS and SCS Module Programming

Today’s cars have Traction Control Systems to handle tire slip and Stability Control (sometimes called Electronic Stability Program [ESP]) to solve problems with steering and slipping. They become particularly important in poor driving conditions, as your grip and balance get affected.

What TCS does to make you safer on wet, icy or lose surfaces:

  • It prevents your vehicle from slipping when you increase your speed.
  • TCS reduces power to the wheel that is about to skid and keeps it from locking up.
  • SCS helps a vehicle keep its course during quick manoeuvres, since it applies vehicle brakes to different wheels as needed.

The difference is that Traction Control prevents your wheels from turning too much, while Stability Control keeps your car on track.

Why Do TCS and SCS Fail on Roads?

Problems with the car’s tires, lights or brakes may cause the TCS warning light or SCS light to appear.

  • A broken wheel sensor – Yes, it can affect your traction control
  • Wires that have worn or are corroded
  • Problems with or old traction control modules
  • If the sensors responsible for these signals are not working properly
  • If ABS isn’t working correctly, you should check both the TCS and ABS system diagnostics.

For any trouble, we use advanced diagnostics and cleaning to fix your stability control module or traction control module and get you back driving quickly.
