The TCS light stands for Traction Control System. The light will come on if you turn the Traction Control Off. If you cannot just turn it off by pushing the TC button, Is the Check engine light on also? If it is the TCS light will come on as well. If it comes on without the check engine light being on then there is a problem with the TCS. You would have to have that diagnosed by the dealer.

What is the exclamation symbol on dash board of 2008 Honda Accord?

That is the TCS (traction control system) indicator light. The light is on to indicate you have turned the Traction Control System OFF. The light will come on for a few seconds every time you turn on the ignition and will then go off unless you have turned the TCS off. The TCS is turned on and off with a button mounted on the dash. No good reason to turn it off. Just leave it on all the time.

Why does tcs light come on 2001 Honda odyssey come on?

TCS stands for traction control system. The TCS light comes on whenever one of your wheels is turning at a faster rate than the other (as in losing traction on wet pavement). The "system" automatically slows the wheel down that spinning too fast. The light comes on whenever it's actively performing it's intended function.
