Default How can i tell if I have "Traction Control"?

I have a 94 GS 300 and I would like to know if I have traction control? What year did traction control become standard?

The traction-control light (under the speedometer and tachometer) will light up when you put the key in the "ACC" position. I don't know when it became standard.

There is a button on the dash right above where you insert the key that says "TRAC OFF" this disables the traction control feature and also is a indicator that the car you have is equipped with traction control.

There is also a light on the dashboard that illuminates when you insert the key like 93lexogs300 said and it also blinks anytime the traction control system is activated ( like if you loose traction, snow, rain puddles etc.)

Traction Control is an option not standard on first generation GS. This option i think was in the neighborhood of $3000. It works pretty good too.
