Traction control issue

valpozguy · 05-22-2015, 06:50 AM

So I tried something for the first time and was pretty disappointed. Had my go pro attached to the car and wanted to record a break torque. With the traction control off I pressed the break and pushed the Gas pedal down and the wheels began to spin and then it felt like traction control took over and stopped this. Tried it a couple times with the same result. Is there something I can do to overide this? Thanks 7at to the guys that need to ask.

There is a fuel cut when brake and gas are both floored -- that must be cutting in.

The way around it is to pull the brake light fuse or to install a switch for it.

Brake light fuse is in the driver side footwell fuse box. It is labeled STOP LAMP. The brake lights will not function with this fuse removed, so DO NOT drive on public roads.

recently I got mine to spin with the fuse in.

once I got the rears spinning I eased off the brake pedal and it stayed in throttle.

then I just kept it going the whole way up the street lol
