In my years of driving experience, the traction control switch on Buick vehicles is usually located on the driver's side of the center console—it's that small button with a skidding car icon or labeled 'TC.' I remember on my Buick Envision, it was nestled among the button cluster to the left of the steering wheel, requiring a slight glance down to locate. The exact position may vary slightly across different model years—for example, older models placed it near the instrument panel, while newer ones moved it below the central control screen. When that yellow light comes on, indicating tire slippage, you’ll need to know the switch’s location to operate it promptly, but avoid turning it off unnecessarily—keeping it on is safer. The system activates automatically while driving, and the light serves as a warning signal. Familiarizing yourself with the button’s position makes it easy to handle, preventing roadside issues. Check the manual or online diagrams if unsure about the location—once you’re accustomed to it, it’s hassle-free.

When I first bought the car, I wondered where the traction control switch was. After asking friends, I learned a bit. On Buick cars, it's usually located in the driver's left-side dashboard area—a small round button with a skidding tire symbol. The exact position varies. I've tried different models like the Encore and LaCrosse, where the button is near the window and easy to feel. A yellow light indicates system intervention. Once you confirm the switch location, you can press it to turn it off for snow testing, but most times, don’t touch it—keep it on. Remembering this can avoid driving distractions. Newbies should take interior photos to mark the spot for quick reference, preventing panic when the light comes on. Position changes don’t affect functionality—drive safely and don’t be careless.

The common location is a TC button icon in the button area on the lower left side of the steering wheel. Simply put, the yellow light on indicates the system is working. The switch can disable or enable the system. The position may vary slightly in different Buick models. Check the button shape to ensure correct operation. If the light stays on continuously, the sensor needs to be inspected.
