When TC turned off, is light supposed to blink?
When TC turned off, is light supposed to blink?
It's been so long since I've been able to drive my car problem-free (I think), but one thing I don't remember for sure:
If I turn traction control off via the console switch, and my tires spin, is the light still supposed to flash on and off when the tires are slipping, or should the light remain solid? I know if TC is off, the light will blink when the TC system engages.
Just want to make sure there's nothing further wrong with my ESP/BAS system .
Thanks to anyone for the refresher.

You know it's faster when your tires aren't spinning:-). It's also faster when your cars not sideways lol

Anyone know if the ESP module that connects to the ABS control module specific to a manual trans or auto trans? Or even if the ABS control module is transmission, or vehicle specific?
Thanks!

I am afraid to say I have no idea what you are talking about, but that's normal for me, I think.

Over here in the UK - tyres are pretty expensive and you learn pretty quick to take care of a full set - unless you have money to burn.
I wouldnt recommend ever bypassing safety systems that have been created for your safety on the road - its not just your life - its the other people who dont have a choice because of the decisons youve made - unless your on the track of course.
I would guess any warranty or insurance would be completely null and void from this kind of activity and I am not sure what your trying to achieve.

There's an ESP and ABS module that connects to the aluminum block that the hydraulic lines connect to. I'm wondering if either of those modules (ESP and/or ABS) are specific to a manual transmission vs. an automatic transmission, or if the same modules are used on all Crossfires.
Does that make more sense?

It's cheaper to import them from the US.
