The StabiliTrak/TCS light will flash
on the instrument panel cluster
when the TCS system or StabiliTrak
is both on and activated.
The StabiliTrak/TCS button
is located on the instrument
panel.

the StabiliTrak/TCS button. The
StabiliTrak/TCS light comes on in
the instrument panel cluster, and
TRAC OFF comes on the DIC.
To turn TCS back on, press and
release the StabiliTrak/TCS button.
To turn off TCS and StabiliTrak,
press and hold the StabiliTrak/TCS
button until the TRAC OFF and
STAB SYS OFF messages come
on the DIC and the StabiliTrak/TCS
light comes on the instrument
panel. To turn TCS and StabiliTrak
back on, press and release the
StabiliTrak/TCS button.
When the TCS or StabiliTrak system
is turned off, the StabiliTrak/TCS
light and the appropriate TRAC OFF
or STAB SYS OFF message will be
displayed on the DIC. The vehicle
will still have brake-traction control
when TCS or StabiliTrak is off, but
will not be able to use the engine
speed management system. The
StabiliTrak/TCS light flashes when
either system is actively working.
See Traction Control System (TCS)
on page 9‑48 for more information.
Limited-Slip Rear Axle
Vehicles with a limited-slip rear axle
can give more traction on snow,
mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works
like a standard axle most of the
time, but when traction is low, this
feature allows the drive wheel with
the most traction to move the
vehicle.
