I drove home like that (about an hour) and then i stopped the car, dropped off some stuff and then started the car again but now the warning is red and it shows a car on a lift on the cluster screen!!!! What the hell?
my car has about 4000miles.
is your problem fixed?

the stability/traction control uses the brakes to control the car, so if the car is detecting a problem with the brakes, it makes sense that it would turn off DSC/DTC to not exacerbate the problem...my vote is also faulty electronics...
