Default traction control and ABS

are both controled by the same system? ( grey box near the left headlight)

each time i spinned or aquaplaned the light TRAC OFF came up and pushing the button under the steering dont get it dissapear at all

for the abs i cant said if it works or not ( i havent hardly break since i have this car( im more a chilling guy héhéhé:P) we have summer condition for another about 3-4 months here but i would really apreciate the abs this winter

if this mean that the system is not working properly can one coming from a camry of these year ( 97) or solara... would fit asuming they have abs and traction control
well i hope that its clear, if its not dont be scared to tell me

thanks in advance ill wait more than 24hour for this one

Hmmm....

Not exactly sure what the problem is. When you loose traction the light is supposed to go on and cuts off the power to allow you to regain control.

I don't understand whats wrong with the ABS light. Can you be more specific?

Cool

thanks for answering my question!

i'll do my best
the thing is that my ABS light doesnt showed up

its the TRAC OFF that came up!

for exemple
the other day, the road was a little wet and i push the gaz the car doesnt spin but the car was 'bucking'(it was like if someone was giving gaz and releasing it quickly) then the light came up and didnt dissapear until i get my code clear, i test 2-3 street corner after, the wheels spinned easy like if the systeme wasnt working ( wich i think its possible because my light is on)
an other day i was in the sand, i gave some gaz and the wheel spin, then again the light didnt dissapear

well tell my if you cant understang my english
