Took out remote starter, now VSC seems less sensitive?

I removed the remote starter from my 2003 4Runner Limited V8 today. It was located under the dash to the left of the steering column. I just unplugged all the wires from it and removed the module. Now the VSC seems less sensitive, I can throw it sideways on a swooping dirt corner of my driveway where it previously buzzed and backed off the throttle. I'm not getting any warning lights, and I verified they are still connected because they come on when I first turn the key and when I engage the diff lock.

So is it just in my head that VSC is less sensitive, or could something be off? Wouldn't it be turning on a warning light if I accidentally disconnected a sensor?

Thanks for any info :-)

It would just spin the starter, it wouldn't fire. Plus it wigged me out having something that could cause the rig to start unexpectedly. Big warning sticker under the hood.

remote start is a pretty nice feature, you should consider getting it fixed. JS, I wish I had remote start lol. oh and sorry I can't help with your electrical issue..
 
why don't you plug it back in and try the corner again? I don't know jack, but on the face of it the relation is not obvious.
