Default Auto start

Ever since I had factory auto start put in my RX350, sometimes I get a yellow light from the dash flicker when I accelerate. It happens so fast I cant tell which light it is. Anybody else run into this? Im thinking maybe a short?

Please post a photo of the light. If you can not hold the phone and drive fast enough to trigger
the light without crashing...just tap the Start/Stop button twice with your foot Off the brake to
bring up all the red/yellow/green warning lights and pick out which one it is.
The Owner's Manual will help identify which system is involved.

Are you accelerating briskly enough to be spinning the tires on water or ice?
That yellow light would be the traction control light
