Traction Control System

The Traction Control System turns

on every time you start the engine,
even if you turned it off the last time

you drove the vehicle.

TCS Indicator

The TCS indicator comes on or

flashes under the following condi-

tions:

When you turn the ignition switch
to ON (II).

When you manually turn off the
TCS.

It flashes when the TCS is

regulating wheelspin.

If the system's diagnostics senses
a problem in the TCS, the indica-

tor will come on and stay on.

If the brakes overheat, the
indicator will come on.

If the TCS indicator comes on and

stays on for more than 10 minutes

while driving, pull to the side of the
road when it is safe and turn off the

engine. Reset the system by
restarting the engine, and watch the

TCS indicator. If the indicator

remains on, or comes back on while

driving, have the system inspected

by your Honda dealer. You can still

drive the vehicle without TCS.

This indicator will come on along

with the ABS indicator if there is a

problem in the anti-lock brake

system (see

ABS Indicator on page

212

).

The TCS indicator may occasionally

come on for one or two seconds and
then go out. This is normal.
