Traction control light on and the button is inoperative... Are you sure you don't have any codes? How are you reading them?

For that light to be on, there has to be a code(s) present unless you've manually turned it off at the button which you say isn't working. Have you checked to see if the connector is plugged into it?

C1277 Requested Torque Signal CKT Malfunction

I don't know anything about this code but hopefully someone else will. Try clearing it now and see if it comes back.
