Abstract
A traction control system for a vehicle with an automatic transmission eliminates acceleration slip of wheels by fuel-cut for stopping fuel supply to an engine upon occurrence of the acceleration slip. The automatic transmission is inhibited from shifting upon occurrence of an acceleration slip for which the fuel cut is carried out, so as to hold a current shift range, prevent the engine speed from lowering down to a fuel recovery speed, and thereby avoid occurrence of hunting of the traction control.
Claims8
A traction control system for a vehicle wherein output power of an engine is transmitted to wheels through an automatic transmission, said traction control system being adapted to eliminate an acceleration slip of the wheels by a fuel-cut with which fuel supply to the engine is stopped upon occurrence of the acceleration slip, wherein said automatic transmission is inhibited from shifting upon occurrence of an acceleration slip with which the fuel cut is carried out, so as to hold a current shift range.
