Driver Influenced Features Of AGS

The adaptive drive program is based primarily on throttle input. The throttle information comes from the ECM (DME) via the CAN bus. The TCM continuously monitors the throttle input for:

• The current throttle position.
• The rate of change in pedal movement.
• The number of acceleration requests.
• The number of kickdown requests. See Fig 1 .
