ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 8m 9d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 12/02/06 02:08 AM Share Posted 12/02/06 02:08 AM I have been doing some work on the car the past couple of days, both under the bonnet and under the dash.I am worried that I have knocked a plug for the Traction Control as everytime I start the car the TC light is on, and pressing the TC button does nothing.I am hoping that someone has done a similar thing and found a fix for it.I have checked the plugs under the dash, and under the bonnet, but I do not know where to start.I feel I might need to take it to Ford to see what the WDS says.
