ETS = Enhanced Traction System. You have to figure out why its on to be able to turn it off. Are there more engine codes other than the cat one? Maybe a missing or bad IAT sensor.

the light should be an ETS OFF light. I know the SF's have a button on the shifter to turn this on/off.

The cavaliers don't have that button.

I just gave them to you. Get ALL the codes pulled and come back and tell us what they are.

Bring it to autozone, have them pull the codes. When the check engine light comes on and/or the ETS light, the computer stores codes in memory to say what the problem is. A code is not a light, its a sequence of 1 letter and 3 digits. Autozone will pull the codes for free.

It can also be caused by the E brake not being fully disengaged.
