This indicator will come on along
with the ABS indicator if there is a
problem in the anti-lock brake
system (see

on page

).

The TCS indicator may occasionally
come on for one or two seconds and
then go out. This is normal.

The Traction Control System turns
on every time you start the engine,
even if you turned it off the last time
you drove the vehicle.

The TCS indicator comes on or
flashes under the following condi-
tions:

When you turn the ignition switch
to ON (II).

When you manually turn off TCS.

If the TCS indicator comes on and
stays on for more than 10 minutes
while driving, pull to the side of the
road when it is safe and turn off the
engine. Reset the system by
restarting the engine, and watch the
TCS indicator. If the indicator
remains on, or comes back on while
driving, have the system inspected
by your Honda dealer. You can still
drive the vehicle without TCS.

It flashes when TCS is regulating
wheelspin.

If the system’s diagnostics senses
a problem with TCS, the indicator
will come on and stay on.

If the brakes overheat, the
indicator will come on.
