Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A ground engaging vehicle having an engine, a transmission driven by the engine, a controller, and a braking system. The controller is communicatively coupled to the engine and the transmission. The braking system is communicatively coupled to the controller. The controller is configured to execute testing steps to evaluate the braking system. The braking system includes a service brake and/or a parking brake. The testing steps executed by the controller include applying either the service brake or the parking brake; engaging the transmission to drive the vehicle; significantly increasing power output from the engine to the transmission, and sensing whether the transmission has an output movement that is above a predetermined amount.
