You can pull the actual CEL code to determine the reason for the light.
Here is one site with instructions.

There is a more descriptive site I've seen but cannot remember the url.

Same lights, different scenario. Upon startup in the morning, both CEL and Trac Off lights illuminate, and then after about 5 minutes they go out and remain out. Is this also telling me to pull the CEL code? Or possibly something else amiss?
