Why did the traction control light come on in the dashboard of the Cadillac CTS?
Years 2002-2007

Answer

When the traction control light comes on in the Cadillac CTS instrument cluster, it indicates that it has been deactivated due to a fault. In this situation the car could enter protection mode, limiting the speed to a few kilometers per hour. The causes of this problem can be many but most of the time it is the failure of the crankshaft rpm sensor, an easily replaceable element. Other causes may be of an electronic nature, sometimes resolvable with a general reset.
