My traction light reads "Traction off". When I press the traction button to turn it on, nothing happens. The ABS light is also on. Is there anything I can do or check myself before taking it to the dealership for costly repairs?

Codes should reveal the problem
Most likely to be a wheel bearing in the front
Check wiring by the axle and hub
