174 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 26. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light - If Equipped This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control System. If a problem is detected while the engine is running, the light will either stay on or flash depending on the nature of the problem. Cycle the ignition key when the vehicle is safely and completely stopped and the gear selector is placed in the P (Park) position. The light should turn off. If the light remains on with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable, however, see your dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light continues to flash when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced performance, an elevated / rough idle, or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an authorized dealer. NOTE: "Two-footed" driving is not recommended. Inadvertently driving with the brake pedal depressed for more than a few seconds when the accelerator pedal is held in place can cause the ETC system to assume that a stuck accelerator pedal has occurred. This will result in a loss of power. Returning the brake pedal to its normal position or moving the accelerator pedal will cancel this condition. If the depressed brake pedal and the constant accelerator pedal position are maintained for an extended period of time, the ETC warning light will begin to flash and continue until the ignition switch is cycled in the same manner as above.
