If I hold the button in I get no flashing just the light display on the dash but that turns everything off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went into Ford and they fixed it. Must have been real easy to do cause they didnt fix anything else.Those who are considering turning it off permanently. Would you also turn your ABS off?DSC also called ESP (electronic stability program)I.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
