The indicator lamp on the stability system mode switch indicates the state of the system. The indicator lamp is ON when the VSES is in stability system full mode or limited mode and the system is initialized.

The indicator lamp is OFF under any of the following conditions:

The system is not initialized.
The PRNDL reading is invalid.
The transmission is in "1".
The brake fluid level is low.
The VSES is in high/low power fail-safe mode. This happens when ignition voltage goes outside of a range of 10.25-16 volts. If this occurs, VSES is disabled, but Class 2 messages continue to be processed.
A current DTC is present.
