NOTICE
Traction control will not function
if there is a malfunction with the
ABS. The warning lights for the ABS,
traction control and the MIL will be
illuminated.
When the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, it is
normal that the ABS warning
light will be illuminated. The
light will remain on until the motorcycle
first reaches a speed exceeding 6 mph
(10 km/h) when it will go off.
The warning light will not illuminate
again until the engine is restarted
unless there is a fault, or the ABS is
disabled by the rider (off-road mode for
Scrambler 400 X only).
Scrambler 400 X only: If the ABS is
disabled by the rider (off-road mode),
the warning light will remain illuminated
until the ABS is enabled again.
If there is a fault with the ABS system
the warning light will be illuminated and
the general warning symbol will flash.
Traction Control (TC) Indicator Light
The Traction Control (TC)
indicator light is used to
indicate that the traction
control system is active and is
working to limit rear wheel slip during
periods of hard acceleration or under
wet or slippery road conditions. Traction
control will not function if there is a
malfunction with the ABS. The warning
lights for the ABS, traction control and
the MIL will be illuminated.
WARNING
If the traction control is not
functioning, care must be taken when
accelerating and cornering on wet/
slippery road surfaces to avoid rear
wheel spin. Do not continue to ride
for longer than is necessary with
the engine management system
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
and traction control warning lights
illuminated.
The fault must be checked and
rectified by a competent person with
the specialist knowledge and technical
understanding of motorcycles, such as
an authorized Triumph dealer.
Hard acceleration and cornering may
cause the rear wheel to spin, leading
to loss of motorcycle control which
could result in serious injury or death.
If traction control is switched on:
Under normal riding conditions the
TC indicator light will remain off.
The TC indicator light will flash
rapidly when the traction control
system is working to limit rear
wheel slip during periods of hard
acceleration or under wet or
slippery road conditions.
If traction control is switched off:
The TC indicator light will not
illuminate. Instead the TC disabled
warning light will be illuminated.
