Traction

System
Warning
Light
(omoN)
The
TRACTION
OFF
warning
light
means
that
the
system
is
not
working.
This
warning
light
may
come
on
for
the
following
reasons:
If
your
transaxle
overheats,
the
traction
control
system
automatically
shuts
off
for
about
three
minutes.
The
warning
light
will
come
on
and
stay
on
during
that
time.
If
your
brakes
overheat,
the
traction
control
system
will
go
off
and
the
warning
light
will
come
on
until
your
brakes
cool
down.
If
you turn
the
system
off
by pressing
the
switch
to
the
right
of
the
steering
column
while
the
vehicle
is
stopped,
the
warning
light
will
come
on
and
stay on.
To
turn
the system
back on,
bring
the
vehicle
to
a
stop
and
press
the
switch
again.
The
warning
light
should
go
off.
The system
will
also
turn
itself
on
if
you turn your

off
and
back
on
again.
If
the
TRACTION
OFF
warning
light
comes
on
and
stays
on
for
an
extended
period of time,
even
when
you've
switched
the
system on, your
vehicle
needs
service.
Also
see
the
Index
under
Traction
Control.
If
you let your
tires
spin
at

spinning
your
tires
with
the
TRACTION

warning
light
on
can
cause
the

to
overheat or can
cause
other
problems.
That
could
cause
