Part: Checks and maintenance

In this guide we will see the instructions that will allow us to activate and deactivate the traction control (TRC) on the Toyota Hilux, in simple and quick steps. First of all, we get on board the vehicle and start the engine; at the first start, the traction control will normally be active and it will be possible to deactivate it from the appropriate button that we find at the bottom of the dashboard, as shown in the video. However, it is recommended not to deactivate the traction control to not compromise driving safety; when the traction control is deactivated, we will see the appropriate warning light appear on the instrument panel.
