The traction control system DOES cut your engine power when the tires spin. That is by design. The system cuts engine power to stop the wheels spinning and restores power once the wheels regain traction. It feels odd when the tires spin and power cuts out. It's good practice to lift off the accelerator when the system kicks in. Otherwise, if you are on gravel or slick streets the tires may spin, stop when traction control kicks in, and then spin again when power is restored. It is not an "elegant" solution but it does work for the most part.
SOURCE: accelerator pedal not giving power when pressed down
top possibilities fuel filter. fuel pump. timming belt.
SOURCE: ABS light and traction control light come on together and go off
check the rear axles for a broken sensor ring
SOURCE: 1999 mustang gt's traction control switch not working
its probably the switch.... try replacing the switch, or just pull the abs/traction control fuses
SOURCE: My traction control button stays on
There is a fault in the system and it should be brought to a qualified technician for diagnostics. It could be anything from a simple fuse to a more serious defect of the traction control system. The only way to find out is to connect it to the appropriate code reader.
Testimonial: "Thanks so much for the quick response :P"
SOURCE: 2004 mustang check engine light,abs light,and
Low battery voltage codes can mean a blown fuse as well as a weak battery at cranking. You don't see any evidence of rodents chewing on wire looms? The PCM should have stored more than low voltage codes if the "check engine" light stayed on.
