mode is overcome, turn the ESP ON again by momen-

tarily pressing the “ESP OFF” switch. This may be done

while the vehicle is in motion.

ESP/BAS Malfunction Indicator Light and
ESP/TCS Indicator Light

The Malfunction Indicator Light for the ESP is

combined with the BAS indicator. The “ESP/

BAS Malfunction Indicator Light” and the

“ESP/TCS Indicator Light” in the instrument

cluster both come on when the ignition switch is turned

to the ON position. They should go out with the engine

running.
The system will turn the “ESP/BAS Malfunction Indica-

tor Light” on continuously while the engine is running if

it detects a malfunction in either the ESP or the BAS or

both. If the light remains on after several ignition cycles

and you have driven the vehicle several miles (kilome-

ters) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), and the

ESP is synchronized (refer to Synchronizing ESP), see

your authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the

problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
• The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” and the “ESP/BAS

Malfunction Indicator Light” will turn on momen-

tarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON.

• Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESP System

will be ON even if it was turned OFF previously.

• The ESP Control System will make buzzing or clicking

sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds

will stop when the ESP becomes inactive following the

maneuver that caused the ESP activation.
