Traction Control System (TCS) Light
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
I
This light should come on
briefly as you start the
engine. If the light doesn't
come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to w a r n
you if there's a problem.
This gage shows the engine
coolant temperature. If the
gage pointer moves into the
shaded area, your engine is
too hot!
If it stays on, or comes on and the DIC shows a
SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM message when you're
driving, there's a problem with your TCS system and
your vehicle needs service. When this light
is on, the
system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust your driving
accordingly. If the driver turns off the Traction Control
System by pressing the button on the console, the TCS
system light will come on and the TRACTION
SYSTEM OFF message will show on the DIC.
This means that your engine coolant has overheated. If
you have been operating your vehicle under normal
driving conditions, you should pull off the road, stop
your vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
(The larger tic marks are in increments of 30
O
below
220°F (104°C) and in increments of 10 Oabove 220 O F
(104"C).)
In "Problems on the Road," this manual shows what to
do. See "Engine Overheating'' in the Index.
