Evening all,

Been out logging today with the d2 and had an issue trying to get up a grassey slope and seemed to have the front wheels spinning, wasn't loaded so weight of landy was basic. Had the TC light on, in low range and making the buzzing noise but just would spin. The other 3 wheels wernt turning.

From what I've been reading, its due to not having the cdl connected up and traction control would be putting power to wheel with least resistance. Just wanted to confirm form someone who knows if this would be the case or it it could be something else which could be fixed.

Just a little gutted as was hoping having the d2 would help me get anywhere compared to my previous 4x4.

Hi, TC doesnt put power on any wheel, in a nutshell: it's supposed to apply brake on the spinning wheel to engage the axle's diff and equalise the wheel speeds, largely explained in the WSM(attached)... it used to misbehave if the brake pads are unevenly worn, the wheels are more than 5% bigger than standard, there is a missballance between the sensor inputs or if there is air trapped in the modulator which happens if the fluid was changed without power bleeding it after with diagnostic tool, also there is a technique to get the best out of it which means constant throttle, it doesnt react well to rev changes.... there is a section called "driving techniques" in the owner's manual better check it
