AnswerIf it is an A/T you check it at the dip stick. Manual is checked under the car on the side of the trans by removing a plug and feeling for fluid. Trac off means the Traction Control system has been turned off. This information can be found in your owner's manual. Don't have one get one. Dealer or salvage yard is a source. AnswerTher is no transmission dip stick on a 2000 Grand AM. AnswerTac off means traction off, when you have low traction the "low traction" light will come on but if you turn it off the "trac off" light will come on. So basically it means your car will not tell you when you have low traction.

Is your ABS light on as well? A common problem with recent Grand Ams would be the speed sensor located inside the wheel hub. If this sensor goes haywire (like many, many have), you will have to replace the entire hub. The sensor itself is not serviceable. FYI.

there is a button you can push to turn the electronic traction system off and on my 2002 se has it on the dash right by the hazard light button some models have it by the shifter

the traction system controls the engine so when wour wheels slip it corrects the problem giving you extra traction

Your car has an electronically controlled transmission. The computer will trip the Check Engine light when a problem is detected in the transmission.
