Default Traction control

Is there a way to turn off the traction control completely? I know there is the button the dash but even with it "off" the TC still kicks in.

pull the fuse or add a switch between the fuse and power- it will also kill your abs system

Depending upon the year of your vehicle - YES | NO

The recommended "pull the fuse" also disables ABS and stability controls.

BTW ... THERE ARE HUNDREDS of threads on this topic. For more information ...

Go ahead search traction control see what comes up, engine mods, the unofficial gun thread etc, lots of help. The search function is about useless.

push and hold the tc button until advance trac disable shows up. usually takes about 10-15 seconds.

its no where near "off" when you do that, your best bet is to pull the fuse

If you don't have the where-with-all to READ and FOLLOW the suggestions that were provided, SURE ... You're gonna a chit-load of unrelated posts/threads. The site's search function may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but it will cut.

Read and follow provided suggestion (and maybe, just maybe add your own additional qualifier/delimiter - you know think).

HINT/TIP: adding "disable" to the other criteria gets ya 166 results. BOY HOWDY! HEYSUS CHRISTE! IT'S A GD FRICKIN' MIRACLE!
