  1. Perform DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK  under DIAGNOSIS & TESTING. Go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition on, with engine off. Using scan tool, enter ABS/TCS data list. While monitoring ASR/TCS on/off switch status, press and release ASR/TCS on/off switch. If switch status changes as switch is pressed and released, go to next step. If switch status does not change as switch is pressed and released, go to step  5 .
  3. Using a scan tool, select INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER SPECIAL FUNCTION. Select WOW INSTRUMENT PANEL in OUTPUT CONTROL. Turn instrument panel indicators on then off. If TCS OFF indicator turns on then off, go to step  9 . If TCS OFF indicator remains illuminated, go to next step.
  4. Disconnect instrument cluster connector. Connect test light across appropriate power and ground terminals. See appropriate ANALOG INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If test light is off, repair open in power or ground circuit to instrument cluster. If test light is on, check instrument panel connector for poor connections.
