Indicator Lights
Traction Control System
(TCS) Indicator
On all V6 models
This indicator has three functions:
1. It comes on as a reminder that you
have turned off the Traction
Control System.
2. It flashes when the TCS is
regulating wheelspin.
3. If it comes on and stays on when
the Traction Control System is on,
it indicates that there is a problem
in the TCS.
This light also comes on when you
turn the ignition ON (II) and goes off
after the engine starts. See page
206 for more information on the
TCS.

Instruments and Controls
Door and Brake Lamp Monitor
The appropriate light comes on in
this display if the trunk or any door
is not closed tightly. If a brake light
does not work, the
BRAKE LAMP
indicator comes on when you push
the brake pedal with the ignition
switch ON (II).
A burned out brake light is a hazard
when drivers behind you cannot tell
you are braking. Have your brake
lights repaired right away.
All the lights in the monitor display
come on for a few seconds when you
turn the ignition switch ON (II).
Turn Signal and
Hazard Warning
Indicators
The left or right turn signal light
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If the light does not blink or
blinks rapidly, it usually means one
of the turn signal bulbs is burned out
(see page 277 ). Replace the bulb as
soon as possible, since other drivers
cannot see that you are signalling.
When you turn on the Hazard
Warning switch, both turn signal
lights blink. All turn signals on the
outside of the car should flash.
