One of your abs wheel sensors could be bad. The wheel bearings and abs sensors are a single unit and when the bearing starts going bad it shows a fault to the abs system. A good shop can read the abs codes and find the problem.
There is a problem with the ABS system. It is part of Traction Control. If the ABS is not working then the Traction Control is not working. You still have standard braking but probably no ABS. Have this checked by a professional, as it can be many things.
Problem with the traction control system.
The Traction Control Light comes on every time you turn on the ignition. It should go off as soon as you start the engine. If it does not, then you have the traction control turned off. Turn it back on and the light will go off. If you have the Traction Control turned on and the light stays lit, then there is a problem with the traction control.
Problem with the ABS. The Traction Control is off because it uses the ABS to control traction. As this is part of the TC system it has also shut down. Have the problem with the ABS repaired by a professional and both will start working again.
The light is on because there is a problem detected by the ABS/Traction control module. Once the problem is fixed the light will reset itself after a short drive.
Depends on what is wrong with it. My traction control did not work as long as there was a problem with one of the ABS wheel sensors - the two functions are tightly integrated.
You have a problem with the Anti-Lock brake system. This system is used by the traction control system.
Bring to a shop that has an "ABS" scanner to determine the problem
you have a problem with your abs system
There is a problem with the Electronic Traction Control (ETC)
The computer resets itself. as for the ABS-Traction control-Tire Pressure... the ABS sensors on the wheels get information for your ABS, traction control and your tire pressure monitoring system, if the ABS has a problem, it disables itself along with the traction control and the tire monitor. You have a problem with your ABS system..get it checked out
On a 1998 Lincoln Town Car : If " check trac " is displayed with the engine running a problem with the traction control system has been detected and the traction control system needs to be checked and the problem corrected
