Abstract
A system including a first drive axle, a second drive axle, a first sensor, a second sensor, and a controller. The first sensor is configured to measure a first speed of the first drive axle. The second sensor is configured to measure a second speed of the second drive axle. The controller is in communication with the first and second sensors. The controller configured to determine an actual axle speed difference value based on the measured first speed and the measured second speed, determine an expected axle speed difference value based on a vehicle speed and a vehicle torque, compare the actual axle speed difference value and the expected axle speed difference value to obtain an error value, and generate an output signal in response to the error value being above a predetermined threshold value.
