Default Vsc

We have a 05 470 and when we got in to drive we hit the VSC button with the knee/leg getting in.. Now in the cluster it shows the "VSC OFF" and the "4 tires with the front to the side with the X in the middle". Is there anyway to set this back to normal without taking it to the dealer? I called tonight and service isnt open till Tuesday.

I think if you press the button again while the vehicle is parked in P, it should go off. Just my guess.

That is not the vsc button but the diferential lock. It is not very good to drive with this locked on pavement. The vsc off light comes on because the vsc cannot work when the diff is locked. To unlock it push the button and drive forward or reverse in a straight line (20-30 feet) and it should go off.
