VSC sucks how do you turn it off

[09legend]

i have a v6se gen 6 and the vsc sucks. i admit i have 20's on and i should take them off but off all the cars i have driven this is clearly the worst. the ABS is also very noisy and kinda scary sounding. the car kept killing the the rpm's then it would go again then it would kill it again no matter i what gear your in. if you are on a slushy hill you are stuck. i had old minivans flying by me. i would really like to able to turn it off and use my driving skill instead. any help?

1. Make sure the car is in Park and the parking brake is disengaged before you start the car.
2. Start the engine.
3. Engage the parking brake.
4. Fully depress the brake pedal and then release.
5. Fully depress the brake pedal and then release.
6. Disengage the parking brake.
7. Fully depress and hold down the brake pedal.
8. Engage the parking brake, then disengage it(while holding down the brake pedal).
9. Engage the parking brake, then disengage it(while holding down the brake pedal).
10. Release the brake pedal.
11. Engage the parking brake.
12. Fully depress the brake pedal and then release.

When "Check VSC" is displayed in the multifunction display along with the "Trac-off" icon indicator, you'll know that you have successfully completed the procedure.

Man im telling you its in the air we breath and the water we drink.. at least we got the better part of it.. these kids are just....

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

may as well just diconnect the brakes too!

The TC/VSC is a great safety feature, but it does need an off switch. We recently had a bunch of snow in the northeast, and the TC almost stranded me on a hill. I keep the instructions on how to disable it in the glovebox, but really... we need a switch.

Very Nice write up and Instruction!!

the Gen5's have an on off switch for the TC under the dash...but i never turn it off and i went through a foot of snow on an up hill today and i'm glad i had it...

I wonder if how hard it would be to find a fuse or a relay to turn it off and on.
