Light

The StabiliTrak system or the
Traction Control System (TCS)
indicator/warning light come on
briefly when the engine is started.

If the light does not come on, have
the vehicle serviced by the dealer.
If the system is working normally,
the indicator light turns off.

If the light is on and not flashing, the
TCS, and potentially the StabiliTrak
system have been disabled. A DIC
message may display. Check the
DIC messages to determine which
feature(s) is no longer functioning
and whether the vehicle requires
service.

If the indicator/warning light is on
and flashing, the TCS and/or the
StabiliTrak system is actively
working.

This indicates that one or more of
the tires are significantly
underinflated.

A tire pressure message can
accompany the light. See Tire
Messages on page 5‑28
for more
information. Stop as soon as
possible, and inflate the tires to the
pressure value shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label. See
