Default traction lock?

I have an 03 gt convert with auto,the last couple of times I have broke traction with traction lock on a little light came on that looks kinda like a blower. I have no manual for this car and would appreciate some info .Car has 27k miles and is stock except for exaust.

lol thats not a blower. Its a Wheel and tire kicking up dirt " breaking loose" letting you know you have lost traction.

is there a question to this post? if you have traction control on, if you spin the tires a little, it's going to kick in and cut fuel and start applying the breaks to the spinning wheel.

Well I was wondering if there was a problem since I don't have a vehicle manual for my car--Wondered what it was for when I started car and all lights come on.If I plan on a burnout I cut tl off but I was just roudy yesterday and kicked it a couple of times-had a couple of feet sideways when it hit 2nd thought it was running pretty good. thanks for the info I was looking for.

I didn't say I thought it was a turbo I tried to describe the light and it does look more like a paxton than a tire
