[jayroca]

I went to the jy and grabbed a ebony console this week!!! Finally.. I never had a armrest smh..

Does my car have tcs? I hooked the plugged to the tcs switch and it illuminated once then it never did it again any suggestions? My tcs doesn't come on on the gauge cluster but I have the harness what does it mean thanks guys

Look for this by the battery. If you see this below congrats you have TCS.

It's easier for the factory to put in a standard wire harness for all vehicles. Once they determine if it will be a TCS or no TCS all they have to do is plug it in. It's less expensive in the long run to do it that way then to go back, tear the car down, insert item x and then put it back together.

All the manufactures do this.

Ok does it illuminate as well? Because I hook it 1 time and it lighted up but it doesn't any more

You don't want or need TCS.

That's exactly what it does. It basically controls braking power to the wheels for you....which in most cases where people know how to drive themselves, want to control that, not the PCM.

My right foot is my traction control lol. No offense meant, OP.

[SMWS6TA]

I have no TC or ABS.

i do have TCS on my 30th Ann. TAm. In normal driving, I mostly see it activate on very tight turning on-ramps, or on damp corners under throttle. It detects wheel spin and kills the throttle.... i havent felt the brakes activate, but maybe. For sport driving, yeah, you'd turn it off anyway.

Attempting a burnout with TCS activated is always a major fail. I have done that at least twice in our car.

Hence why I didn't buy a car with TCS. Since I knew I would forget to turn it off. Plus it just makes the engine bay look that much junkier.

My car labels it as ASR; anti-slip regulation.
