Traction control in reverse

[Graeme]

Can anyone confirm whether traction control does or does not work in reverse in a D4? I discovered today that TC did not work in reverse in my MY12 RR with 1 wheel front and rear spinning although ABS intervenes if the brake pedal is lightly depressed while wheels are spinning. A trailer was attached but I can't think why that would disable TC.

I do know for sure the trailer being connected changes several attributes. I just don't know what. Perhaps thinks you will not be off-road with trailer?

The message that off-road height would not be selected for rock crawl was displayed because of the trailer but I can't fathom why TC would be be disabled. I will try again without the trailer plug fitted to be sure.

Graeme,look back at a few early mag roadtests on the L322.I recall one mag getting into a bit of strife on a steep rubble climb when they had to abort and back down.Apparently the electronics didn't work.At the time I put it down to non Landy friendly reporters/lack of knowledge in the electronics at the time.
Sorry,cant help with the Mag brand,would have been one of the main ones at the time,it was an aussie mag.

I know HDC works in reverse. Not sure if HDC is completely independent of TC?

I recall HDC working on reverse on the D2 but don't recall reading or experiencing whether TC has worked in reverse on the D2 or the D4.

I didn't have the time today to put the trailer in the same awkward position to determine if disconnecting the trailer electrical plug made any difference, but should be able to do a simple test in a few days when the rain returns without unduly messing-up the ground.

On the D4 and L320 TC and TR work in reverse.

Cheers,

I will try it again without a trailer connected on my test ditch that leaves D4 wheels dangling in the air when driven diagonally.
