Wondering if anyone can explain it like I am 5 why when I push TC off I get a bludgy-tyre with TC in it and a cross out. But there is also a drink-driver image just above it, and on the other dial a drink-driver image who is off that day?

Stupid questions I know, I think I know why but want to hear from others to validate or pretend that is what I thought all along.

Can't really form an image from your descriptions but maybe one is traction control and the other is power steering?

The top two are TC one will light up with a quick press of the TC button. If you hold the TC button both will light up.

The bottom one is TPMS warning light.

See I have always thought the same.

But, when I press the TC button, it is the bottom one that lights up :s

Always has done since I bought it.

Nope not correct at all.

Turns out I need to stop multi-tasking. I am not capable of it.

This is the correct buldgy tyre TC icon.

RTFM, push to switch off TC, hold to switch off TC & ESP
