Traction Control Removal???

I recently posted a similar thread and didn't find any answers. Has anyone had any luck removing the traction control?? I was told someone named TRAX or something performed this on his car and it worked. I guess he replaced his throttle cable and cruise control cable and used a module from a non ASR car. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated

I think SLP has something that will disable it until you want it on...I don't know if that would help your cause or not?

What you mentioned would work but the traction control light would remain on indicating a fault. Easiest fix would be to install the SLP control box that keeps the system off until you turn it on. It makes the system operate oposite of stock.

I think in order to do it, you need to replace the throttle and cruise cables with non traction pieces. You also need a new BCM I believe, and you'll have to remove the little "box" on top of your driver side valve cover, and probably brake lines as well.

Re: Traction Control Removal???

HEy, I really appreciate all the ideas. Yes, I am planning on removing the entire ASR system from my car. I never liked it and it takes up alot of room. I guess I will call my parts guys and see what I can score some cables for and then go on ebay of the module. Then I get to have some FUN with the brake lines, JOY! Thanks again, I appreciate the insight.
