come on briefly as you start
the engine.

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.

back on, press the button again. The warning light
should go off. (See “Traction Control System”
in the Index for more information.)

will turn off, the warning light will come on and the
