TCS stands for traction control system.Your owners manual explains how to use it.
The TCS light sometimes comes on for an unrelated vacuum leak. It is a quirk in the system. Unfortunately locating the vacuum leak can be very difficult - fixing it is easy once located.
vacuum/vent solenoids
The TCS system is part of the ABS system - antilocking brake system - but be aware that a simple vacuum leak will be enough to trigger the TCS light to come on.
Traction Control SystemTCS, is the Traction Control System. You will see the light come on or flicker when the TCS is activated. 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

It means the traction control system is on and that your car will less likely spin out or over rev for regular driving leave the system on so it means the light will not be there
its for traction
most Ive seen and experienced are - TCS Light - Knock Sensor Failure - O2 Sensor Failure(s) - Auto Steering tilt Failure (motor) - ECG Valve failure
The ABS and TCS (Traction Control System) lights in a 2002 Mazda Millenia may illuminate at 65 mph due to a malfunction in the ABS system or a wheel speed sensor detecting an inconsistency in wheel rotation. This could be caused by issues such as a faulty sensor, damaged wiring, or a problem with the ABS control module. Additionally, if the traction control system detects wheel slip or loss of traction at higher speeds, it may trigger the warning lights. It's advisable to have the vehicle diagnosed with a scan tool to pinpoint the exact cause.
Press the "TCS" button by the shift lever, and notice any change in lights on the dash by the Tachometer/Speedometer. If no change after pressing the button, check the fuse for the TCS. If the fuse is good, you may need to check the TCS/ABS sensor cable hooked to the front wheels, inner and under, towards the rear of the front wheels. Frayed or disconnection with the TCS wire could be the culprit.
the closest to a sensor for tcs would be the abs wheel speed sensor. just like abs, the control unit sees one wheel spinning faster, and it enables the traction control. kinda like reverse abs. not to be confused with limp home mode, where the pcm stops communicating with tcm, and the tcs off/tcs lites up, and the car wont rev above 2500 rpm
