How does the Traction Control button (located on the lower left side dash, past the steering wheel) work? I was told by the dealership I could turn on/off the Traction control. I have pushed the button and sometimes a little symbol, by the speedometer comes on, but only stays on for a minute or so.
Does this mean it in off or on?
Should an indicator light stay on?
Does the Traction control interfere or override the AWD?
Might I have a fuse problem?
I know, lots of questions, but the more I research this the more confused I am getting. Maybe I am just not researching in the correct places. Any help you can give, I will thank you for now!

Re: BLP 09 AWD Traction Control question
While at a complete stop, hold the traction control button for about 5 seconds. The light will come on and the VSC OFF light will come on as well. Now you will have no traction control and no stability control and your AWD system can work as it's intended to.
If you just push the button, the traction control will only stay off until you hit 50km/h. You have to hold it while stopped then it will stay off.
Personally I believe that, yes, the traction control/stabilitrak system does override the awd system.
No, you don't have a fuse problem.
