in a while, the light will stay on. once it stays on, that means your car will self destruct Better go look in the FAQ @ the top of the page to find out how to prevent this from happening

better remove that titanium wing, the car weight distribution sensors re-learned themselves with all that downforce. so when you turn the car on there isn't all that weight so you get the "main't required" but once you start moving the downforce causes the weight to increase on the sensor and since it relearned it thinks that is normal while being stopped is wrong

That's funny. When I would have this it only occoured when I turned the car on. When I turn the car off nothing lights up (as it should be).
