ignition to RUN.
If the light doesn’t come on then, the system may

you if the system is turned off.
If the light stays on, or comes on when you’re driving,
there may be a problem with your Traction Assist

problem, the system will turn off and the light will
come on. Have your vehicle serviced.
If the vehicle is driven over an extremely rough road,
the system will turn off and the light will come on. The
