    My engine light is on after pulling a relay to test my fog lights. My truck is a v6 4x4 access cab, year 2014. I didn't turn the engine on just the battery during testing and the result is an engine light and traction control light. I used a traction control relay to test the lights, which work great, but do you think I torched that relay swapping it from one place to another? Even with not turning the motor over at all.

    No you didn't harm anything. The code was thrown for Traction Control when you turned on the ignition switch with the relay out...
