Signal for rough terrain recognition, 
checking
 
     
Note:  
     
When the ABS/EDL control module recognizes 
that a wheel is spinning, the ABS/EDL control 
module generates the rough terrain signal. 
When the Engine Control Module (ECM) 
recognizes the rough terrain signal, combustion 
misfire recognition is switched off in the Engine 
Control Module (ECM). 
     Only check the rough terrain signal if the 
malfunction "18014 (P1606) rough terrain 
info/engine torque from ABS cont. mod. 
Electrical malfunction in circuit" is stored DTC 
memory. It is possible that the malfunction 
"Combustion misfire" is also stored in DTC 
memory as a side effect and it can be 
disregarded. 
     The wire connection and rough terrain signal 
are monitored by the Engine Control Module 
(ECM).
