off. See Traction Control System (TCS) on page 4-9 for more information.

•If there’s a brake system problem that is specifically related to traction control, the traction control system will turn off and the warning light will come on. If your brakes begin to overheat, the traction control system will turn off and the warning light will come on until your brakes cool down.

•If the traction control system is affected by an engine-related problem, the system will turn off and the warning light will come on.

This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the red gage lamp turns on, your engine is too hot!

It means that your engine coolant has overheated. If you have been operating your vehicle under normal driving conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
