Many traction control systems use the throttle body to reduce engine RPM in the event of slippage.

An electronically managed continuously variable transfer clutch actively controls torque distribution in response to driving conditions and wheel slippage.

Failure to accelerate, when engine RPM rises, can be due to slippage in the transmission and that can be due to faults in the torque converter, clutch pack or the hydraulic controls (e.g., inadequate line pressure).

Similarly, a traction - control system applies brakes and cuts engine power if slippage is detected.

The system helps maintain lateral control using the ABS and / or throttle to prevent wheel slippage.
