Best Answer

Traction control system

When it is turned off the light will come on ( button on your shifter )

If you did not turn it off then the check engine light should be on as well, if not then there may be a problem with the tcs system, have it diagnosed at the dealer.

Why does the tcs light come on the dash?

The TCS light stands for Traction Control System. The light will come on if you turn the Traction Control Off. If you cannot just turn it off by pushing the TC button, Is the Check engine light on also? If it is the TCS light will come on as well. If it comes on without the check engine light being on then there is a problem with the TCS. You would have to have that diagnosed by the dealer.

If the light says TCS OFF, then turn it back on and leave it on.if tcs illuminates, it means tracion control is activated. however, if tcs off/tcs both illuminate, it means pcm has stopped communicating with tcm, and most of the time, the car then is put in "limp home" mode. when both tcs off/tcs illuminate, there are a whole bunch of reasons why
