    I just had some new tires put on my 2009 Tacoma, which had an alignment done in he process. Upon getting he truck back, the traction light is on and will not turn off. The guys at the big - o have no idea. Has anyone had a similar problem, and what was he fix?

    It is the slip indicator and I is constantly on. They said they "re-zeroed" the sensors after aligning the truck. They are going to try to re align and reset it again. Ugh!!

    It u the light that would flash and beep if my tires were slipping on snow or something. Instead if flashing, it just stays on no matter what you press

    They reset the TPMS system more likely than the VSC / TRAC system

    The manager told me they reset the VSC sensors as part of the alignment, thinking the boys did something wrong

    Interesting

    Well , having the pdf Frank linked should help , and jandrews is correct in pointing out that the VSC system is pretty sensitive to any out of spec alignment issues
