    On my 16 Tacoma when on icy roads and you hit the brakes and slide the what I call slippery/icy road lamp come on but also I get like a grinding/ratcheting type of noise which sounds like up front left side. This happens when tires spin on icy road also. Is this normal
    thanks

    That’s your traction control kicking in

    Sounds like your ABS engaging when braking and traction control engaging while accelerating. Perfectly normal.

    Less annoying than wrecking. Maybe some snow tires?

    VSC cannot control steering. As far as I know Tacoma's have purely hydraulic steering and nothing in place to support electronically controlled steering.

    VSC and TC both control front and rear brakes. Neither control the rear diff as the diff is an entirely mechanical device.
