No traction control disable button?

[luke87gt]

Hi guys,

2006 4Runner V6 2WD...

I'm in the snow up in Lake Tahoe this past weekend. For the first time since owning this car, I am on the snow and looking for a traction control disable button. I look on the console, look at the dash, look on the panel near my left knee... NOTHING!

Is it possible that a 2006 2WD 4Runner did not come equipped with a TC disable button like nearly every other car in America. Someone please tell me I'm just looking in the wrong place.

Driving in the snow with a 2WD can be challenging enough. But driving in the snow in a 2WD vehicle with traction control on 100% of the time is ridiculous.

Thanks,
Luke

As far as I know only 2008 + has that button... you had to do a mod to disable the traction control

same for my 2005 2wd

the mods to add one all seem to be for 4wd

the TC behavior with a little ice or snow can get you killed in an intersection

Like I said, from the how-to link mentioned above:

"So before I go on, do note that I have not been able to fully test this mod. Also note that this mod is for 4WD 4Runners only"

Here is my solution

Only 08+ has VSC Disable. Probably the most factory like alternative:
