Disable traction control?

[wy906 0]

Is there a way to disable TC on a standard VR6? By removing fuse (if there’s one for TC)? If so, which fuse?

 

Thanks!

No. Fuses are same for TCS or no TCS.

 

The two valves are controlled by two links if you wish to experiment.

 

ABS Controller pin T55/37 to ABS hydraulic unit T5a/2, Green with yellow stripe wire.

 

ABS Controller pin T55/40 to ABS hydraulic unit T5a/5, Green with white stripe wire.

 

This will most likely bring on the ABS warning light in the dash - MoT failure and therefore invalidates insurance.

Will throw faults in the ABS memory.

Do not know what side effects it will cause in the ABS system.

You could also just disconnect a front wheel ABS sensor and take out the whole system that way. Same caveats apply wrt having the light on the dash, MOT fail, etc etc.

ABS is a liability in snow anyway.

Was thinking of being made switchable if "experiments" checked out OK, so in temporary situations, the switch is flicked to OFF to get going. Do this on the Mk3 Scirocco and it works a treat.

Thanks for the info.

 

I'll leave it as it is then.
