Hey guys,

I need some input here. I posted before about my TCS problem, and how the ABS light came on with the TCS light, well it happend again, and the dealership and I have gone around and around replacing parts to fix the TCS. Well I'm so sick of it, I took the TCS relay out today which causes the TCS light to come on, so I took apart my dash and took the light out. Well the ABS light is coming on again. What could that be from? I took the black cable off the battery for 5 minutes to try and reset the computer, but it didn't work. Any ideas? Maybe I'll just put the relay in and push the TCS button every time I start the car... but that would be just annoying. I dont think that the ABS is directly connected to the traction system, cause I took out the relay once before and that light didn't come on. Maybe it just needs to be driven for a while. The last time I drove a car without any ABS I rearended some poor old chap in Montgomery, Alabama.... I dont need that in the TL.

 

Oh and I just checked the brake fluid, its up to the top, so I doubt its that. I'm gonna run by the dealer tomorrow and they'll top it off for me for free, but i dont think it can get filled up anymore.

 

OK, I found the problem.... I was testing out some different theories, and I put the TCS relay/fuse back into its slot. I turned the car on and the ABS light went off. SO.... this is what I need. I need someone who knows how to do this, or has a helms manual and can actually read and understand the damn thing, tell me how to bypass, or trick the ABS into thinking that the TCS is actually functional. The whole objective is to disconnect the TCS system, in a way that I do not have to push the button every time I start the car, which is what I'm doing now, I just unplugged the dash TCS light so it wont bug me when I'm driving. What a bitch this is. Any and all input is appreciated! Thanks ya'll.
