Toyota 4Runner: How to Turn Traction Control On / Off

The traction control feature on the Toyota 4Runner helps stabilize your vehicle when driving on slippery roads. Traction control isn’t so handy when your wheels are stuck or traveling on gravel or dirt. Fortunately, there is a way you can turn the Traction Control system on and off. Just follow these steps.

2002 – 2023 Models

  1. Turn the engine to the “On” position.
  2. Locate the traction control button labeled “TRAC” or “Traction Control” on the center console or the dashboard near the driver’s side.
  3. Press the traction control button once to turn the system off. You may see a light on the instrument panel turn on, indicating that the traction control is disabled.
  4. Press the traction control button again to turn the system on. The light or indicator should turn off, indicating that the traction control system is enabled.

1995 – 2001 Models

The Toyota 4Runner models from 1995 to 2001 do not have a standard traction control system.

I hope this guide has helped you operate the traction control system on the Toyota 4Runner.
