Electronic stability program (ESP) — warning lamp
The yellow ESP warning lamp in the
speedometer dial comes on with the
electronic key in starter switch position 2.
It should go out with engine running.
If the ESP malfunction indicator lamp remains
illuminated with the engine running, a malfunction has
been detected in the system. Pressing the accelerator
pedal will require greater effort. Only partial engine
output will be available.
With the ESP malfunctioning, the abs, BAS, EBB and
4-ETS are also switched off.
See electronic stability program (ESP) on page 243 if the
warning lamp lights up or flashes when the vehicle is
moving.
Note:
If the transfer case differential lock is engaged the ESP
warning lamp comes on and the ESP, ABS, BAS and
4-ETS are switched off. There is no malfunction in the
system.
Seat belt nonusage warning lamp
With the electronic key in starter switch
position 2, the seat belt nonusage warning
lamp comes on, and a warning sounds for a
short time if the drivers seat belt is not fastened.
After starting the engine, the seat belt nonusage
warning lamp blinks for a brief period to remind the
driver and passengers to fasten seat belts.
