There is an accelerometer mounted on the body under the driver's seat. So if your car is truely shaking, then the PSD warning is just the PSD controller erroneously detecting a lateral forces, which normally are created by making sharp turns. The dash light comes on when the controller engages the differential lock.
We need more info about the shaking. Is the shaking from clutch chatter?

And you are sure your car is not shaking for the same reason as this one? ![Wink](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Nicole: THANK YOU!
You may have hijacked this thread. But I think tek had been put on the trail, so we should forgive you.
That was great. Did I laugh so hard, b/c I feel guilty and my wife knows the shark does compete for my attention??

Suggest you follow the error message and consult WSM.
Lastly, some people search the archives before asking a question.
