Need help with 2000 Taurus Transaxle Warning Light

Can anyone please help with a problem I am having with my daughter's 2000 SE Taurus? The Transaxle Warning light blinks on and off whenever she is in "Cruise Control" mode. It never comes on otherwise. It takes a few minutes in Cruise mode before it comes on. I've checked for fault codes but none are registered in the memory. Car runs fine, just the annoying light. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!

There will be codes stored from the transaxle light, unfortunately they require a high end scan tool to access them. Most of the consumer grade tools can only access powertrain codes which do not include full access to transmission codes.

Thanks, Rod. My reader is pretty basic. Any idea why it only does it in "cruise"? I would guess if I had a real problem there it would have nothing to do with cruise control.
