If the front and rear tires are not equal in diameter the T/C will activate.
There are 2 hall sensors in the T/C which pick up metallic dust, causing them to malfunction. Drain the T/C (remove the fill plug first), remove and clean the Hall sensors, inspect for cracking (replace if defective), refill with clean ATF... Philip
