Question- Electronic Stability Control button

**Dracconus** · 04-25-2014, 02:42 AM

Is there not a placce on the MID to display when this is turned off or a sound or anything? I can push mine a thousand times and see/hear nothing...wondering if they ripped me off and just put in a button without wiring...

It isn't like a usual traction control/abs button.
Press and hold it for around 5 seconds, a light that is yellow/orange comes on to show it is turned off

Yeh, you need to hold it for 5ish seconds to turn off

Gotcha. I tried holding it down before for a few but apparently not long enough. Works as intended thanks.

Maybe to avoid bumping it by mistake? A family member when using my car accidentally turned on my seat heater and couldn't find the switch - drove 60 miles in the summer on the hot seat!

I'm sorry for your misfortune on that one, truly I am. I've driven trucks through florida in july, and got stuck at a 13'6" overpass running 14'2" and was there for six hours with no a.c. so I understand being stuck in a ****ty hot seat...truly, I do

That being said, I busted out laughing so fckn hard when I read that ^_^ I would have been geeking around in that car like a crack fiend lost a rock trying to find that button.

I wasn't clear - it wasn't me in the car on the hot seat - but the driver of the car, alone. The problem was that there are two seat-heater buttons, one on the left and one on the right. Line of sight for the driver only shows the one on the right (passenger) side. Our unfortunate driver just kept turning the passenger one on and off thinking the D*** thing was busted! I also had a good laugh.
