“VSC TRAC” warning light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the following.
Active traction control system
Vehicle stability control system
Downhill assist control system
Hill−start assist control system
When the system is normal and the igni-
tion key is turned to “ON”, the warning
light will come on and will go off after a
few seconds.
It is not a malfunction that the “VSC
TRAC” warning light may stay on for 60
seconds after the ignition key is turned to
“ON”. Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the light. It is normal if it
goes out after a few seconds.
If the “VSC TRAC” warning light and slip
indicator light come on while driving, the
active traction control system does not
work. However, as normal braking oper-
ates when being applied, there is no prob-
lem to continue your driving.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The warning light does not come on
after the ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light remains on after the
ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light comes on while driv-
ing.
The “AUTO LSD” system aids traction
by using the traction control system to
control engine performance and braking
when one of the rear wheels begins to
spin.
This system is used only when wheel
spinning occurs in a ditch or on a
rough surface.
This system is effective in case one of
the rear wheels is spinning.

The brake actuator temperature increases
during continuous operation of the “AUTO
LSD” system, the traction control system
and the vehicle stability control system
such as on slippery roads. If the brake
actuator temperature becomes too high
while any of the systems is operating, a
buzzer will start to sound intermittently to
indicate that the “AUTO LSD” system can
no longer operate. In this case, immedi-
ately stop your vehicle at a safe place.
If the system continues to operate, the
buzzer sound changes from intermittent to
continuous. (The continuous buzzer
sounds for about 3 seconds.)
At the time the slip indicator light will
come on and the “AUTO LSD” system
temporarily stops operating in order to
protect the brake actuator. (Although the
“AUTO LSD” system does not operate, it
is no problem to continue driving.) The
system will be automatically restored after
a short time and the slip indicator light
goes off.
