No, it does not
my car after driving for 15 min traction light flashs
Traction Control ensures that there is enough traction i.e grip. If there will be too much power or a car might be on a frictionless smooth surface, the car might skid due to less traction and TC regulates power and ensures seemless driving
its for traction
when road conditions are bad, slow down your vehicle
They won't provide more traction when the roads are wet, it would be like driving on ice.
its recommended you put traction control on when driving in icey conditions, the car will still slide if you apply the brakes or accelerate quickly tho
Both. If both tires have equal traction the power is split between both.
For the most part and under normal highway driving, driving in 4x4 is just like driving in 2 wheel drive. When things get slippery or the surface more uneven you get added traction and grip on the road. Keep in mind that although traction is improved in four wheel drive, braking does not improve.
The traction control system malfunction light is a warning light that indicates the tires are losing traction on the road. If driving in adverse weather when the light comes on slowing down will make it go out.
transfers the most driving force to the wheel with the greatest amount of traction
Either wheel can be the "drive" wheel. It depends on traction. When driving straight ahead on dry pavement the power is split 50-50 between the wheels. When you turn a corner the outside wheel has to speed up, so it gets more power.
