Hello from sunny North Carolina -- 370Z Traction control vs VDC issue

Carpetbombing

Howdy. New here. I just got a 370z, but have only driven it about 150 miles before having to store it 1,000 miles away until the snow and salt on the Minnesota roads melt away. I can't verify this for myself since I'm not near my car, but I have been voraciously reading up on this forum and cutting and pasting things that were of interest to me for future reference.

I DON'T KNOW IN WHERE THE STATEMENT BELOW WAS FIRST POSTED, OR BY WHOM. I'm not trying to plagiarize anyone, I just wanted to pass along what I've read here. If anyone knows the original poster, please credit..


To COMPLETELY disable all VDC / traction control stuff (It’s only partially turned off when you select the ‘off’ button) : The Bosch yaw sensor (not the brake light fuse) is under the center console. Just pull the cup holder and look in front/under the e-brake. It's a little hard to get to like this but I did it. If not you have to remove the center console to get full access to the ebrake area. No drawbacks if u know how to drive without CDC and tcs. Let's u drift the car also. Yeah, the vdc and tcs lights will be on showing u that they actually off like when u push the vdc button. No other lights though. Nothing different then just pushing the button except u don't have to push the button anymore and no tcs interference.


- Has anyone else tried this?
