Default Traction control gone?

I hate it but would like it on rainy days. Today my traction control off light came on upon startup. It will not toggle back and forth? Bad switch? How do I check? It saved me once on a wet road with thin layer of mud.; Any help appreciated. Yes I did a search.

Check your plug to your rear sensors. You can find the plug harness attached to the body under the car above the axle on the driver's side. It has happened to me once before....the plug came loose.

try a burnout flipping the switch, if it roasts them like it should then you'll know if its working or not...
