When the ESP or TCS function is activated, a bus message sent by the ESP control module lights up a lamp on the main instrument unit. The lamp extinguishes as soon as the function cuts out.

For the lamp to light requires both braking and a reduction of engine torque. This means that the system can in some circumstances function without the lamp lighting.
