Low Traction Light If you have the Enhanced Traction System, this light will also come on when the system is limiting wheel spin. Engine Coolant Temperature Light This light tells you that your engine coolant has overheated or your radiator cooling fan is not working. You may feel or hear the system working, but this is normal. Slippery road conditions may exist if the low traction light comes on, so adjust your driving accordingly. The light will stay on for a few seconds after the Enhanced Traction System stops limiting wheel spin. See "Enhanced Traction System" in the Index. The low traction light also comes on briefly when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If the light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be there to tell you when the Enhanced Traction System is active. The light will come on briefly when your ignition is turned on to show you that it is working. If you have been operating your vehicle under normal driving conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible. See "Engine Overheating" in the Index. 2-67
