I picked up a 16 reg Exige v6 about a week and a half ago and was driving it home from work today in tour mode. Towards the end of the journey i realised the traction control light was on without the sport mode or race mode being activated; when i tried to switch the car into sport or race, it didn't work; the TC light just stayed on. Is there a specific traction control button i might have accidentally pressed, or is this an error? When i turned the car off and on again the TC control light was off and i was able to cycle through the different driving modes.

Faulty brake light switch. Two stage switch, if the stages come on in the wrong order the ECU gets upset.
