The Slip Indicator Light on a Lexus RX 350
The slip indicator light on a Lexus RX 350 is a warning light that alerts the driver to a potential problem with the vehicle’s traction control system. When this light comes on, it is important to take immediate action to ensure the safety of yourself and your passengers.
The slip indicator light may indicate a malfunction in the following systems:
– Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system
– Traction Control (TRAC) system
– Hill-start Assist Control system.
If the slip indicator light is flashing, it means that the VSC or TRAC system is operating. However, if the light is fully illuminated, it indicates a malfunction in one of the aforementioned systems, and it is recommended to have the vehicle inspected by a Lexus dealer or service provider as soon as possible.
It is important not to ignore the slip indicator light and to take appropriate action to ensure the safety of yourself and others on the road. This may include slowing down, maintaining control of the vehicle, and checking the tires.
Please note that if you are experiencing any issues with your vehicle, it is always best to consult the owner’s manual or contact a Lexus dealer for specific guidance and assistance.
