The brake actuator temperature increases during continuous operation of the above mentioned systems such as on slippery roads. If the brake actuator temperature becomes too high while any of the systems is operating, a buzzer will start to sound intermittently to indicate that the traction control system can no longer operate. In this case, immediately stop your vehicle at a safe place. "VSC TRAC" warning light This light warns that there is a problem somewhere in the following. If the system continues to operate, the buzzer sound changes from intermittent to continuous. (The continuous buzzer sounds for about 3 seconds.) At the time, the "VSC TRAC" warning light will come on and the traction control system temporarily stops operating in order to protect the brake actuator. (Although the traction control system does not operate, it is no problem to continue driving.) The system will be automatically restored after a short time and the "VSC TRAC" warning light goes off. If the light comes on while driving, the traction control system does not work. However, as the brakes operate normally when applied, it is no problem to continue your driving. In the following cases, contact your Toyota dealer: D The warning light does not come on after the ignition key is turned to "ON".
