I have a ATC light flashing on my dash board.
What is it?
i don't have the manuals and have never seen it before.
I'm in a truck stop about 20 minutes from our destination. Can I keep driving or should I seek help
Thanks in advance.

Husband says it's Automatic Traction Control. Any large RV repair shop can reset the light and/or check the code. Good luck! Lonny & Diane

It's no big deal. I've set mine off a couple of times when I'm lowering my tag and applying the brakes at the same time. It has to do with the "Automatic Traction Control".

Thanks for the quick response.
Can I drive it with the light on safely?

The first time my light came on, I pulled into a rest stop and called CC. The tech called back in about an hour and told me how to reset the code. I wish I could remember how he told me to do it. He did tell me it was OK to drive it. The second time, I ignored the light and it eventually went out. My rule of thumb on dash lights is, if it's orange I keep driving and try to figure out whats wrong when it's convenient, if it's red, I stop and call someone.

It is a calibration issue on the tag ATC sensor..
We have had this for 5 years. Happens about once a year.
The solution is to adjust the sensor distance at the offending wheel.
CC tech support told us.. "no mechanical problem, so go ahead and drive it"

Thanks everyone.
I fired it up again and drove about 30 miles to our destination. The light never came on again. I don't have a tag.
On recollection we hit a very bad joint in the freeway. Shook the heck out of us. Maybe that tripped the sensor.
Again this is proof of the value of this forum.

Bruce,
Very good chance that is what happened, and not uncommon with the ABS systems. When one wheel senses a difference in speed from the others, it will trigger an error code. On the 2006 Intrigue, under the drivers side first bay door is an ABS blink code switch, which is also used to reset the system. You need to find out where the ABS switch is on your coach and reset it. You may drive with no problem.

Bruce,
Quit doing burnouts!
Do you have a tag? If so did you just pull in somewhere or where you straight line driving when the light came on? Kevin

Hi Kevin,
I've got the wrong tires on for a decent burnt out let alone doing donuts!
No tag. The light came on while we were doing 60mph up the interstate.
Stopped at a truck stop. Read the manuals. Got on this forum. Got some replies. Fired back up again and drove the last 30 miles to our destination without the light coming back on.
