My traction Control light or "trac off" light is coming on. I have a 2002 chevy cavalier. Big problem or no?

Question

Its not shifting hard like some other stories i heard. No differences in performance at all. How do i get it fixed? All so the check engine light does not come on.

Answer 1

I see this all of the time ,where the trac- off light is on and if it's off all you have to do  is push on the gas padel hard and it will come right back on again ,I believe that it just a head ache, they would had been better off not putting it in cars. It's not going to do anything to your car with it on , beside's driving you crazy. The check engine light wont come on when the trac -off light is on .The way you know if your check engine light is working is when you first turn the key on it should come on for a few seconds if it working right.

Answer 2

The traction control lamp coming on is no big deal and will cause no drivability problems.This lamp comes on to tell you there is a problem found and the traction control system needs repair.The dealer or local repair shop needs to scan your computer and quote a price to fix the traction control system.Best of luck.
