    I’m wondering if anyone has found a way to wire in a traction control switch that you don’t have to be at a full stop to turn off? It’s quite annoying when you find somewhere to swing the back end out and you have to stop to turn off traction control, it makes spontaneous drifting impossible. I was just looking in the fuse box and seemingly the traction control fuse is the same fuse as the fuel injection? So presumably you can’t pull this fuse? This would have been an extreme solution but has anyone ever come up with a work around for this? I’m absolutely awful with wiring and would love some guidance.

    The same thing has annoyed me many times, but I have never tried to do anything about it nor have I heard of anyone succeeding in doing anything about it. My guess is that it’s not as simple as pulling a fuse. You likely need to fool the ECU.

    You can always just remember to disable it before you leave your parking spot. That’s typically what I do on snowy days. The other option is to always drive in 4lo.
