This symbol, along with
the message TRACTION
CONTROL OFF will
display on the DIC for
three seconds when the
ETS is not on.
If there is a problem with the system, the service
traction system will also come on in the DIC. See
Enhanced Traction System Warning Light on page 3-48.
When this warning light is on, the system will not limit
wheel spin. Adjust driving accordingly.
To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road
conditions, the ETS should always be left on. But
the system can be turned off. The system should be
turned off if the vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud,
or snow and rocking the vehicle is required. See
Rocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out on page 4-22 and
If Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow
on page 4-21 for more information.
Press the traction control
button located on the
console to turn the
system off.
If the system is limiting wheel spin when the button is
pressed, the system will turn off instantly. Press the
traction control button again to turn the system on.

The vehicle may have a vehicle stability enhancement
system called Stabilitrak
®

computer controlled system that assists with directional
control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
Stabilitrak
®
Plus comes on whenever the vehicle is
started. It activates when the computer senses a
discrepancy between the intended path and the
direction the vehicle is actually traveling. Stabilitrak
®
Plus selectively applies braking pressure at any one
of the vehicle’s brakes to help control the vehicle in
the steering direction.
