Traction Control System (TCS)
Warning Light
If the warning light doesn't come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there's a problem.
If it stays on, or comes on when you're driving, there
may be a problem with your traction control system and
your vehicle may need service. When this warning
light is on, the system will not limit wheel spin. Adjust
your driving accordingly.
For vehicles equipped with
the traction control system,
this warning light should
come on briefly when
the engine is started.
The traction control system warning light may come on
for the following reasons:
•
If you turn the system off by pressing the button
located on the end of the gearshift lever, the
warning light will come on and stay on. To turn the
system back on, press the button again. The
warning light should go off. See Traction Control
System (TCS) on page 4-9 for more information.
•
If there's a brake system problem that is specifically
related to traction control, the traction control
system will turn off and the warning light will come
on. If your brakes begin to overheat, the traction
control system will turn off and the warning light will
come on until your brakes cool down.
•
If the traction control system is affected by an
engine-related problem, the system will turn off and
the warning light will come on.
If the traction control system warning light comes on
and stays on for an extended period of time when the
system is turned on, your vehicle needs service.
