“TRACTION SYS DISABLED” message will be displayed
in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
Refer to Section 4 of this manual.

To turn the system back ON, press the switch a second
time, until the “Traction Control Indicator Light” turns
off.

When the Traction Control System has been turned off
using the switch, a feature of the system remains active.
This feature functions similar to a limited slip differential
and controls the wheel spin across an axle. If one wheel
on an axle is spinning faster than the other, the system
will apply the brake of the spinning wheel and allow
more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not
spinning.

NOTE:

• The “Traction Control Indicator Light” comes on mo-

mentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON.
This will occur even if you used the switch to turn the
system OFF.

• Each time the ignition is turned ON, the Traction

Control System will be ON even if it was turned OFF
previously.

• The Traction Control System will make buzzing or

clicking sounds when it is active.
