Hey guys I've been searching the forums but didn't find anything that described how to fix the DSC problem. I've had the light come on by itself before and all i did was pull a new paper out of my wheel well that got caught . but while i was driving to work this morning the DSC turned off completely just when it snows! I'm in NYC.. well i got to my office and checked all the wheel wells but nothing is blocking to sensors and it wouldn't go away. I was wondering if anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it before i bring it to the dealer. Thanks in advance guys! by the way im past warranty and will have to come out of my pocket so any suggestions will be appreciated!

An immediate fix is put the New"s"paper back, your car wants to read.

Probably ABS sensor... maybe the newspaper knocked that loose.

Nono lol nothing was blocking my wheel wells, today i was just driving and all of a sudden the circle with the triangle and ! popped up and i didnt touch the DSC button. when i parked to check if anything was covering or blocking the wells nothing was there so i thought my sensor might have been loose or got an error. I tried pushing the button but nothing was working
