The light on my '04 GT's traction control button doesn't work --- hasn't since the day I bought it (almost 3 months ago). But, I remembered test driving a few of these cars years ago --- after you start the engine you press the traction control button to disable the traction control (and the little light in the button should come on). I've just made it a habit to press the traction control button every time I start the car and begin forward movement!
