Title: lost in translation
Post by: ampm7 on March 18, 2020, 04:41:15 PM
I have a 2016 Eldorado and have tried the traction control but it doesn't seem to go out of the 'veloce' sequence as indicated on the dash. I have it on mgct traction #2 (seemingly 'turismo') by using the left hand switch which goes through clock, trip, voltage etc just fine. There doesn't seem to be a definition of whether 'veloce' is #1, 2, or 3. In the owners' manual it says to bump the starter switch but it seems to go nonsensical when it implies that the bike needs to be running. I can live with it in whatever mode it is in because it runs just fine and has plenty of power, but it would be just nice to know how to toggle between settings.

Traction control is set by the mode switch on the left side of the bar if it is like my 2016 Audace. To change from Veloce, to Turismo and rain or whatever it is called is done with the starter/kill switch. You need to be stopped or in neutral when moving, clutch disengaged. I think you have to be below a certain speed but I am not sure about that. I stop to do it. You need to hit the switch twice to go into the change mode. Then toggle through the various settings. Leave it where you want it and it will stay in that mode. I leave mine in veloce most of the time. I have never tried the rain mode. Hope this helps.

Mopar, so the engine is running? A quick blip is correct? Thanks

You're talking about 2 different things. The "veloce/turismo/pioggia refers to the throttle curve. Operation is as Mopar says.

I've used the pioggia (rain) setting on occasion, and it grannies the roll on pretty good.
