Electronic Traction Control (TC)

The TC warning lamp is illuminated for approximately 4 seconds when the ignition is switched to position II for a bulb check. When traction control is operating, the TC warning lamp will be illuminated for a minimum of 2 seconds or for as long as the traction control system is active. The TC warning lamp also illuminates when the ABS ECU detects a brake system fault which affects traction control. If a fault is detected the lamp will remain permanently illuminated. The vehicle may still be driven but rectification of the fault should be sought at the earliest opportunity.
