Disable TC

[blktoy]

Winter is at our door and last year had a few times that I could have used a way to temp, disable the traction control. I know that the other models can disable by doing a sequence of steps. (Parking brake on to start 2-press brake twice 3- pump parking brake 2 times--tc disabled until restart.
This is not working for the hybrid. Any ideas?

Also tried

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.
13. Fully depress the brake pedal and then release

No luck

Read your Hybrid Service Manual?????????

VDIM is different than TC/VSC on the standard Camry.............

I've READ the service manual and I know that it is not the same as tc. So I'll word it another way. Is there any way to disable the VDIM for a short time just to get off an ice patch or snow bank ?

I am not sure if this is an original or some kind of copy. I was going to buy a wholesale distributor deal lot of them of 200 with the free shipping but I wanted to get some feedback before I buy. If that link does not work then try www.lducompany.com and click on diecast toys. Did coca cola put one of these out before? It's a cute little diecast truck.
