The switch should be near the shifter. It's in the same area as the power button I think. If the button isn't there, then you probably don't have traction control.

No, it is not standard, at least on the older models. I don't have it and don't want it!

Toyota's method of traction control through the 90s was "If there is wheel spin, choke to 2% throttle" and it doesn't care if you just pulled out into heavy traffic. You're a sitting duck. Give me a little wheel spin any day!

thanks everyone. yeah i looked at the manual to see where it was and i looked up pics online too ( i was in hurry because was ordering part for my car and no one had replied yet) and i saw where it is. but also thanks for replying and yes it would be like on the right side of shifter at the top right below the ash tray area( not sure if u call that ash tray i just calling it that for some reason ) and thats crazy about choke to 2% damn i glad i dont have it then. well i saw something that says trak or trac on my speedometer so i thought maybe i had it but then i couldnt find the switch then after looking at manual which has a picture of where the button is if u do have it and i saw that mine does not have it.
