ESC operation disabled To cancel ESC operation, press the ESC disable button (ESC OFF indicator light comes on). If the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position when the ESC is deactivated, the ESC remains off. When the engine is restarted, the ESC will automatically switch on. On the dashboard, there is an ESC button that may have been pressed accidentally.
If that is the case, you can manually turn off the ESC light. Look for the switch that says ESC, ESP or DSC on the dashboard and press it for three seconds. Look on your instrument panel to see if the light went out. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) came about as a result of the advancement of Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) over the years.
If your vehicle is still under warranty, take your car to your dealer to have the ESC problem properly diagnosed. Electronic stability control (ESC) may also be referred to as electronic stability programme (ESP) or dynamic stability control (DSC). If the ESC light flashes when driving more than normal, it means that the system is activated, and is trying to keep the vehicle under control. ESC may also come on when using a spare tyre with a different diameter to the rest of the car's tyres.
Under normal operating conditions, the ESC light should only come on when the car is started for a couple of seconds and then go out.
