Your vehicle may have a Traction Control System (TCS) that limits wheel spin. This is especially useful in slippery road conditions. The system operates only if it senses that one or both of the front wheels are spinning or beginning to lose traction. When this happens, the system works the front brakes to limit wheel spin.
This light will come on briefly when the ignition is turned to ON along with the anti-lock brake system warning light.
This light will blink when your Traction Control System is limiting wheel spin.
You may feel or hear the system working, but this is normal. This light will also come on when the anti-lock brake system is working.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may re-engage the cruise control. See Cruise Control .
The Traction Control System operates in all transaxle shift lever positions. But the system can upshift the transaxle only as high as the shift lever position you have chosen, so you should use the lower gears only when necessary.
