The driving mode selector allows the driver to select from three modes: Winter (W), Economy (E) and Sport (S). The mode selector has two signal cables, MS1 and MS2, and a ground lead. Driving mode is selected by connecting one or the other, or both signal cables to ground (the signal goes low). Note that MS1 and MS2 signal cables are grounded simultaneously only when the W button is depressed.
B=battery voltage
