Does ASR reset after turning off then on?

Check the wiring harness, particularly looking for rodent damage.

In that case you may need to read codes with a blink reader (or STAR)

Must have a fault code. If it didn't the light wouldn't be on.

Could not find the codes its not the same as the codes i used to have.
Found the codes on my old computer.
Code 14 =2
Fuel pump relay (circuit 87) not functioning
Code 14 =3
TN/TD signal (RPM) interrupted
Code 14 -4
Output for oxygen sensor heater control defective
Code14 = 6
Output for kickdown switch control defective
These are the 4 codes coming up. Now 2 cannot be a problem because the car starts its only when you put your foot down thats when the ASR light comes on.
Code 14 = 6 , this is the one i want to know about?
Output for kickdown switch control defective, ANYONE know what ans were this is.
Thanks for any help.
