Default Trac light comes on

My track off light comes on the dash board and I was wondering what was the cause of it coming on? Can someone point me in the right direction?

Track off light? Do you mean, "traction control?"

It might help if you post what year model LS you have.

Default Ls400 trac off light

TRAC OFF light comes on the dash board and will not go off. Not sure what is causing this to stay on. It is not the traction control but it is the trac off light stays on. Can I still drive with it on or do I have to stop driving the car?

There are certain failures of unrelated things that will cause it to come on. If a code is set it can be a cause, is the CEL on?

Yeah, I know. The thread is 2 years old, but somebody may find this information useful.

The Trac light in my 93 LS400 would come on sometimes after driving for a short while. It turned out the brake fluid reservoir cap wouldn't stay tight, so I replaced it and have not seen the light come on since.

Nice cheap fix.
