If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off. If the light
comes on while driving, stop as soon as it is safely
possible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engine
again to reset the system. If the ABS light stays on,
or comes on again while driving, the vehicle needs
service. If the regular brake system warning light is not
on, the vehicle still has brakes, but not antilock brakes.
If the regular brake system warning light is also on, the
vehicle does not have antilock brakes and there is a
problem with the regular brakes. See Brake System
Warning Light on page 4‑24.

StabiliTrak
®
/Traction Control System
(TCS) Warning Light
The StabiliTrak and
Traction Control System
(TCS) indicator/warning
light comes on briefly
while starting the engine.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your dealer/
retailer. If the system is working normally the indicator
light then goes off.
The light flashes while the StabiliTrak system and TCS
are working to assist the driver with directional control
of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
If the StabiliTrak system and TCS light comes on and
stays on while driving and a TRACTION FAULTor
SERVICE STAB SYS message displays on the DIC, the
vehicle needs service.
The light also comes on steady when the StabiliTrak
system and/or TCS are turned off. The DIC also
displays a TRAC OFF and/or STAB SYS OFF message.
If the TCS is off, wheel spin is not limited. If the
StabiliTrak system is off, the system does not assist the
driver with directional control of the vehicle. The light
turns off when the TCS and StabiliTrak system are
turned back on.
