I bought back the wreck (yep, I couldn't let go...) since the car had all the good bits still working (it was a monumental rear-ender that bent the chassis out of the insurers repairable parameters) and bought a snailless but otherwise matching XR6 to transplant all the good gear into. Did that and me being a little lazy, thought I could get it running with the donor car's 5channel ABS. Speedo never worked and at one stage got help from a young bloke (daniel) who had access to the Ford Software and CAMM2 Bus connector to make changes. Sadly all he succeeded in doing was disabling my Traction Control toggle and I eventually just bit the bullet and transplanted my 6channel ABS unit in. Speedo and all other things are back to normal however still, no traction control toggle and this is where I'm at.I spoke to Ford Servcie and (as they do) they promptly fed me a tirade of how it's going to probably cost them at least an hour and that it isn't easy to crack into the ECU to make these changes and it could mean they'll have to try several settings and then test-drive the car to check nothing else has changed and to verify that.. blah blah blah, waffle, yarpyarpyarp...mumbledroneworblecarryon.....So, Does anyone have the ability to toggle this one pox-ridden setting for me? I can pay in cartons and/or appreciation or for that matter, most forms of trade currency you might think of. I still have the bare shell of my wreck and sundry non-performance related spares if that's of any use. Nothing flash so I won't list it.Cheers,:| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out that the Cluster in the Car I just converted didn't know how to display the Traction Control Lamp (yep, that's right, they can be programmed) so it had no idea. Threw my old Cluster in and Voila, Insta-Traction Control Indication Goodness! too bad my old cluster has an extra 120,000km on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
