The last few times it has rained really hard, I have experienced a drivetrain vibration and my ASC light has flashed s few times. Has anybody else experienced this issue, or have any ideas as to what it might be?

Sassy is a 2006 MCS

Thank you in advance.....

 

Depending on your driving style, the symptoms you describe may be normal. The traction control system uses the braking system to maintain stability when the car is losing traction. If you try to accelerate too rapidly in wet conditions your front wheels will spin and the traction control system will actuate the brakes to stop the out of control situation that it senses. Likewise, if you brake too hard during wet conditions, the system senses wheel lockup and will release the locked brake because maximum braking is only possible with the wheels still turning. Flashing of the ABS light is normal when the traction control is actively intervening to maintain vehicle control.

 

Thanks for the input...
