Stability/Traction Control Indicator (Sliding-Car Icon)

Status of the traction control system is indicated by a stability/traction control indicator (sliding-car icon) and a stability/traction control OFF indicator (sliding-car OFF icon) located in the IC (or message center if equipped). When the driver disables the traction control system through the use of the traction control switch, the sliding-car OFF icon illuminates continuously. When one or more of the systems is currently active, the sliding-car icon flashes, and when the system is disabled due to DTCs being present in the ABS module, the sliding-car icon illuminates. In some cases, the sliding-car icon illuminates in conjunction with the yellow ABS warning indicator. When a DTC is set that affects ESC/RSC®, both the stability/traction control indicator (sliding-car icon) and a stability/traction control (sliding car icon) OFF indicator illuminate together.
