Default Trac Light w/no Check Engine

Went to go look at a Gs300 to buy today and it had a Trac Light on. my current Gs doesnt have a traction control so i know nothing about it. is it a big deal or can I just unplug/disconnect it and be fine? i've searched everywhere for fixes and ways to get around it but there is no definite answer.

again the question is, can you just disconnect it/unplug it and not have to worry about anything messing up? (better yet if there is an answer to fix it)


Edit: or can i drive with the trac light on without any bad affects?

Trying to fix the trac problem is a headache in a half.
Mine is on and has been since I bought it in 07. It worked for a bit, then the womp sound, started as the wheels make the first few rotataions from start up. After this would happen, the light used to go off, now it just stays on. No effects on driving, I just have no traction control. In the winter when it snows I just have to use old school rear wheel drive skills. As for trying to fix this problem there was a guy who tried and replaced everything conected to it w/ no luck. So Id say take out the bulb and forget. Just my opion.
