"Brake system light. The first thing to do if you see this symbol glowing on the dashboard is check the handbrake hasn't been left on. ... That could relate to the worn condition of the brake pads or discs, a lack of fluid in the system or a problem with the anti-lock brakes (ABS) or stability control (ESP)."

Make, model and year of automobile.

Color of dashboard symbol or icon, and is it flashing?

Headlights failure.
If the yellow symbol appear as soon as you turn on the dashboard, stop's light bulbs may be the problem.
If the yellow symbol appear when you switch-on lights, the problem may comes from the position's light bulbs.
Ensure that all of the light bulbs are fully working.

YOur description doesn't ring any bells but sounds like a light warning issue - head beams, or something light that.

that is telling you that your traction control is off

That sounds like a TPMS (Tyre Pressure Warning System) Light. If that's the case check your PSI by blowing tyres up to recommended PSI levels (this will be on your doors) or resort to owners manual.

it's the traction control. Your manual has symbols and explanations regarding warning lights on dashboard. What it means is when you are driving and the road is wet or slippery, the traction control feature activates so you won't slip or hydroplane when you are stepping on the brakes. good luck ms pretty...

in your owners book will tell u what it means,,,

Try pressing the D3 button on your gear shift - little button below the main one. D3 allows for quick acceleration, but the light also shows when the car is locked is gear ('limp home mode') due to another problem.
