2002 camry trac off light

[flower 4]

I really need some advice. I have a 2002 camry and the vsc and trac off lights came on. I am getting different opinions on what they mean. Please someone help me out. At the dealer they told me it is safe to drive the car with out being fixed. Is this a myth? or is it a danger and need to be fixed immediately?

The lights are on to indicate a problem with the traction and vehicle skid control systems. The computer has stored a trouble code that needs to be read and diagnosed and until fixed has disabled those two systems. The car is safe to drive. The stability and traction control just won't work until you get it fixed.

hey, I did find my owners manual there is a seperate fuse box for the trac system. I am going to find someone to check that for me. i am hoping that is all it is because it didnt come on til the guy at advanced parts tore hooked up the thing to read codes.
