Traction Control Switch: Description and Operation







DESCRIPTION





The ESP Off Switch is located in the transmission range indicator surround bezel of the front floor console. The ESP Off switch turns the Electronic Stability Program off whenever the switch is depressed. Depressing the switch a second time turns the ESP back on. The switch resets itself each time the ignition is cycled.

When the ESP Off switch is depressed and released, turning ESP off, it does not completely turn the system off. The ESP system reduces torque management to a lesser amount, but ESP function can still occur if the system perceives the need.
