System and method of determining differential state of a vehicle

Abstract

A control system is configured to determine a differential state of a vehicle. The control system includes a first wheel sensor, a second wheel sensor, and an electronic controller. The first wheel sensor is configured to detect a first wheel speed of a first wheel. The second wheel sensor is configured to detect a second wheel speed of a second wheel. The electronic controller is configured to determine whether the first wheel speed is equal to or different from the second wheel speed, and to turn off an indicator when the first wheel speed is different from the second wheel speed. The indicator is illuminated to indicate a locked differential state of the vehicle.
