Default TCS off light comes on if the tires spin

Only if i lose traction my TCS off light comes on. It will not go off unless I shut the ignition off and turn it back on. I thought at first it was because of my wiring after a tune but it only comes on if the tires spin. There is no low Trac light coming on.

When the tires spin, TCS has failed and the light means you
stayed in it long enough for it to give up. Which can happen
earlier, and latch, if it decides there's a fault.

There are no codes in the pcm. So my TCS system isn't working. I mean it's a useless system really in these cars. Never did like the gas pedal trying to push my foot off of it anyway. It just bugs me to have a light on the dash.
