    Traction control on EU models (possible to disable by adding a switch?)

    As we have snow at the moment here in the Netherlands, I really want to turn of traction control so I can slide it around. (it works kinda, but as soon as I slide the traction control takes over and cuts my engine) so I wanted to know if we can actually turn it off in the EU models. I found this thread(https://mirageforum.com/forum/showth...action-control) which states that we cannot, but since the sidemarker cables are routed on EU models, but there is just an ugly chrome thing there instead. I wonder if there are cables routed to the panel where the asc button is in the non-EU models. If so, what cables? Does it use a NO or a NC switch?

    I've searched a little further, and found some more info in the wiring sheets:

    Would it be as easy as putting a switch in between the wiring or is there some software preventing me from doing it?

    It might be a feature in ETACS.

    One way to find out... if you're brave!

    I turned mine off just last week before doing a lurid, sideways handbrake slide into my parking space in an empty parking lot.
