I am trying to find out where the traction "motor" is located. The only motor for the traction control system that is listed as a "motor" in my parts book as the Lexus dealership described is the traction motor for the butterfly valve that I believe is mounted on the throttle body. Could they have meant the traction pump is bad. Could that also be called a motor. Been trying to get ahold of the service advisor but he's never in his office and hasn't returned any of my messages.

On the early LS series, 92 say, the traction "motor" is located right beside the master cylinder. It is virtaully a duplicate, functionally, of the ABS pumpmotor assembly and in later models they were combined. I would have the brake system thoroughly flushed first by a mechanic/techician that knows about the extra brake fluid bleed valves on the ABS pumpmotor assembly and the one on the traction pumpmotor assembly.

I had to show/tell the Lexus tech (EXPERT??!!) where they were and how there were to be used on my 92 LS.
