traction control query 03' coupe 2.2

gaps

HI Guys, I do get the power dip, but I can still spin the wheels off the line grip slip grip slip grip slip effect and the car seems to prefer to pull through third gear than ragging 1st and 2nd. I've never had a TC warning light come on is it the car sliding into the triangle symbol? Is it possible to pull a plug in the engine bay to stop it working (i've read the threads on adding the TC switch)

Or do I not have TC fitted at all?

yeah it will do that mate! there is know way in stopping it from spin n ! but yes u do hav t/c and yes it that triangle symbol on dash, wen wheel spin t/c cums on the wheels should not be spin n ! and then it will cut out then back in again! u get a switch 2 turn it off and on £18 mine was ! goes just above ur gear stick!

solved this one - boot the throttle harder on a slippery surface whilst trying to turn right in front of on coming traffic, then the little triangle light comes up, so yes all is well!
