Traction Control System Warning Light
(Option With 3.5L V6 Engine)

This warning light should
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.

for the following reasons:

TRACTION CONTROL button located on the
console, the warning light will come on and stay on.

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

D 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.

D 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.
