Welcome...

Would your brake fluid be below minimum in it's reservoir? This usually indicates you brakes need to be inspected or serviced (replaced). The brake fluid displaces the wear of the brake pads.

If you did an Advaced Search, typed in "traction control light" and clicked on the SC400/300 section, you would get over 60 threads on the subject. I would advise doing a search before you post a thread asking a question that has been asked and answered already. Good luck finding the problem.

Thank you. Tammy, it was the brake fluid level. I did some research on it and that had to be the only option. I also did my brakes not too long ago so it had to be the problem.

Thanx a lot guys.
