Traction Control
Heya
my fto has the traction control light that comes on when i do a sharp turn in wet weather (discovered it when i turned a sharp right at the intersection lights at Sunnybank) it helps a lot trust me (could've severely damage my babii
) as for what it looks like its just an orange light that comes on (located near your fuel light) when your fto needs it im pretty sure it says TC (mine hasn't come on for a very long time..must be better at driving now hahaha) but yeah mine used to stay on all the time even when I turned my car on and off (freaky) but my boyfriend managed to fix it..usually plays up if the sensor is dirty. As for models umm my fto is a 95 GPX Mivec not sure if it comes in the other models and not sure if its standard for mivec but if its a safety thing it should come standard with the car lolz
hope that helps

the traction control doesnt really work when you spin the wheels in a straight line, the light flashes but it wont cut the power till after you have basically done a massive skid, it only really works when your going round a corner really fast with the foot planted and the front starts to skip out.

I thought traction control was more effective for higher powered turbo cars rather than the stock FTO...
