My advanetrac lights are on Mechanic's Assistant: Just to clarify, what are the exact lights you're talking about? The trac on and the trac off lights are both on Mechanic's Assistant: What is the make/model/year of your car? 2011 Ford Mustang with the v6 Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Mustang yourself? What have you tried so far? I have tried turning on sport tac and turning it off but it does absolutely nothing Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? The abs wires going to the wheels are not melted on the [exhaust](/topics-exhaust-ford/) or anything like that

Hello and thank you for using JustAnswer. My name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I will do my best to assist you. During this conversation you will be given an automated offer for a phone call. You may accept or decline that offer.I don’t personally offer this service so if you take this another tech may call I’m sorry that you’re having trouble with your vehicle. I will do my best to help you resolve them. Please understand that I do not know your knowledge or capabilities so I may need to ask questions to find out basic information to help solve your specific problem. My aim is to give you the best service possible and to help you. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Sometimes it may take a moment for me to respond because I may have to look up information about your concern. I appreciate your patience and will provide responses as soon as possible. So this could be a few things. Only way to know is to scan the ABS module and see what trouble codes you have. Could be a wheel speed sensor, module, wiring, ect..... One thing you can check quick is the fuse on the positive battery cable. I have seen people short out the terminal and pop that fuse before and it will cause the advance trac light. If it is good you will have to get it scanned by a scanner that reads all modules. Hope this helps.

Where is the fuse on the positive cableI can’t call
Automotive Expert
It is on the positive terminal right where it connects to the battery.

Sorry about thaI found the fuses but neither of them are blownI still can’t call
Automotive Expert
Yea then you will need to scan the system for trouble codes. Make sure it is a scanner that reads all modules. You will have some codes.

Does a memo scan OBD-II scanner read all module
Automotive Expert
I don't believe so. IT only shows powertrain codes.

KIs there anything I can try without using a scaner
Automotive Expert
You can try unhooking both battery cables and letting it set for 10 min then reattach. It may clear the code and stay out. IF not then you have an active code and will need repair.

OkThank youI’ll try that
Automotive Expert
You are welcome. Hope it works out.

That’s all I neededThanks
