I have a 2000 LS and i was wondering if it was possible to add a traction control button switch like the SS have. i had the center console top piece replaced and the new one was out of an SS and has the TC button, but im not sure if there is a plug in my wiring harness for it to connect to, or if the PCM will even register it. Any ideas?

Thanks

 

lo, belive me when i say that it causes more problems that its worth. most owners disable it every time they start there engines. id sell you mine if i knew how to take it off.

 

i have an LS... i dont have a button to turn it off... Turning it off is what im wanting to do. And i think i need the button to do that.

 

the switch for the traction controlls for the 06 07 it part of the headlight switch i am not sure if the traction controlls is the same for you gen

 

Just because you add the button won't mean you have traction control. I doubt the rest of the parts are in place to have this function. You could probably add it but it would be cheaper to find a car with it installed.

 

Do you have traction control to start with that you can turn it off?

 

i see a traction control light up area on my speedo but its never been on, did they maybe not come with it?

and i read somewhere that you can never completely turn off the traction control

 

TC is dumb. Id give you mine, but I use it everytime I start my car.... well not now actually.

 

could someone please explain to me the benefits of having it off verses having it on? I have mine on all the time, should I not use it all the time?? please let me know, thanks

 

When you press the button traction control won't activate, even the system normally would in the given situation. The switch deactivates the possibility that it'll turn on.
