Traction Control Kill Switch

[Jsouder53]

I’m thinking about wiring a traction control kill switch if it’s possible. After the past couple of weeks driving on snow covered roads, it’s been consistently killing power while I slip (but still in control). Even with pushing the button to turn it off, it still tries to correct my driving. I hate it… this is how the roads have been for the past couple weeks in Big Sky. I love driving in these conditions, but the littlest slide and it tries to correct me and kills power.

Do you have a tazer installed? If you do, you can kill all the traction controls and anti-lock brakes. I use it when rock climbing, snow wheeling, playing in the sand and any rough forest roads that have a lot of elevation gain.

...and how would you do that? I know you hate it but I think you're just asking for problems. Just my 2 cents.

No, I have the AEV procal that came with my lift kit. I kinda wish I had the tazer.

Have you done the “press snd hold for 5 seconds” trick?

Not certain yet lol but you are probably right about problems that would come up…

I remember ddays added a switch to his JK. Don’t remember exactly how it turned out. I also know these JLs and JTs are sensitive

Yes, i feel like I still get some “assistance”

have you tried holding the TC off button for about 10 seconds? it should flash for a second, and you'll see the ABS anti-skid off as well

Thanks, I’ll try that tomorrow.
