traction control

[justram2013]

so was wondering if there is a way to fully shut traction control off. i have read about pulling a fuse, has anyone done this and does it work? i dont want abs off but willing to pull the fuse just to try it. any other recomendations? and also what fuse do you pull? just want to know my 395 hp truck will spin the tires

What benefit does turning it off do? I actually have a factory button on my dash that allows me to turn it off.

The button doesn't completely disable it. I use the Trinity to kill mine completely.

dont think the dash button turns it off completely. I dont know if there is a benefit, thats what im trying to find out. i just want to at least once say my ram will smoke the tires.

The easiest way to do it is with a tuner. Or I think you can pull the ABS fuse. I may be wrong on that though

but if i shut it off with the tuner then the abs is off to, and not sure i want that, 99%of my driving is normal driving. but what fuse do you pull? there are three different ones for abs and elec stability. ive read some say the J6 fuse, mine is a 2013 and there are no J fuses all F

Your truck should have come with a cool little book called an owners manual. Inside that you'll find a list of all the fuses and a nice picture showing their locations. I'd say take a peek in there.

yeah thanks i already did, and like i said there are 3 different ones. i dont know which one to pull, one is for the pump one is for the control valve and the other is for module maybe

The modul one is the one if i remember, stock tires should spin no prob tho, hit dash button shift to first hold brake and floor it, mine turns my heavy 285/60/20 duratracs no prob with 3.55 gears, the odd time you may have to lightly let off the brake

I just use the dash button to turn off traction control while at the track for some burn outs, no problem. I think the diablo tuner also turns off the stability control which is controlled by the abs.

There is no way in heck I would ever want the ABS turned off here in Canada.

You know, its funny. In the winter time here in Edmonton, I can drift around corners in 4wheel with traction either on or off and the ABS never kicks when I go to brake. I can feel them lock a bit but I just let off.

In the summertime, I never care about it, nor do I ever brake hard enough on dry pavement to catch the ABS. The stability control I will feel from time to time on gravel roads and such, but its pretty good at kicking itself off quickly.

ill try the module fuse once just for the sake of trying. unless anyone else has any suggestions for me

Im not a fan of ABS either, I find it more dangerous than anything actually.
