PINPOINT TEST Y: THE TRACTION CONTROL/STABILITY ASSIST INDICATOR IS NEVER/ALWAYS ON


Y1-Y5:






Normal Operation
The traction control/stability assist indicator informs the driver that a traction control or stability assist event is taking place, by flashing the indicator. It is also used to indicate a malfunction in the traction control/stability assist system, or if the traction control/stability assist has been disabled by the operator, by illuminating the indicator constantly (not flashing). The ABS module sends a message to the instrument cluster along the CAN bus to illuminate the traction control/stability assist indicator.

Possible Causes
- Traction control switch
- Traction control/stability assist system
- ABS module
- Instrument cluster
