Traction control button oddness

[blck10th]

Ok I swaped out the IRS for a Solid. the light is lit at all times and when i press the button it does not go off.

1. no it is not turned off in my tune

2.I did not reinstall the abs sensors on the rear.

3. i have gotten on it and the traction control did not kick in

WTF

My first thought is that the sensors should have been reinstalled. Unless you put c-clip eliminators in, the sensors can be reinstalled in the solid without a problem, assuming you have the exciter rings too.

You'll have to have it turned off in the tune now, unless you can install the sensors and rings.
With no signal from the sensors, it thinks something is broken, so it does nothing.

Does your car still have ABS?

 

[Bob_Kurgan]

if there are no ABS sensors, the traction control will be permanately disabled..

 

[Dana]

Yes, I'm guessing that that is the problem. He just needs the light/traction control function turned off in the tune now.
If he still has ABS on the car, then that ABS light should be popping on too, with no sensors mounted.

If there are hookups in the front they are still attached. So I guess yes.
The abs light is on but that came on when I put 295's on the car.

It gets worse...

I officially became a senior citizen today.
I am having a difficult time believing that. I still think like a kid way too often.

Well, youi might as well get rid of them too. Ask Larry about a block to eliminate the ABS controller. He was working on something...
