Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light Traction Control System Warning Light (If Equipped) United States Canada United States Canada The traction control system warning light may come on for the following reasons: The anti-lock brake system warning light should come on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the anti-lock brake system warning light stays on longer than normal after you've started your engine, turn the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on and stays on when you're driving, stop as soon as possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again while you're driving, the anti-lock brake system needs service and you don't have anti-lock brakes. The anti-lock brake system warning light should come on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem. D If you turn the system off by pressing the TRAC OFF button located in the center console switchbank the warning light will come on and stay on. To turn the system back on, press the button again. The warning light should go off. See "Traction Control System" in the Index for more information. D If there's an engine-related and brake system problem that is specifically related to traction control, the traction control system will turn off and the warning light will come on. If the brake system problem is caused by the brakes beginning to overheat, the brakes will need to cool down before the traction control system warning light will turn off. 2-88
