Rob S Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Hi, was on absolute newbie drive this week and both I and another Prado driver faced traction control activating even though disabled by the button on the dash. Any advice for us how to fully disable from other Prado owners? Both of ours see 2015 models. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederic Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 @Mikhail Lukichev @Kalahari @Antoz tagging few Prado owners to see if they have faced issues with this. 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Kalahari Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 You have to keep pressing the “traction control” button for a few seconds - it will then completely disable all. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob S Posted November 6, 2021 Author Share Posted November 6, 2021 Dash showed traction control was off. Maybe it was stability control or abs cutting in? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederic Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 As Kalahari probably means: Pushing it once disables traction, but if you keep it pushed for a couple seconds more, than TRC OFF will also light up. 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Two off lights should appear on the dash. However, ABS will be still on (which is fine for me). Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob S Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 Thanks everyone, tried this morning and is slightly different than the video so thought worth documenting for others if relevant. press once, “TRC off” lights up. press and hold: “TRC off” light is displayed almost instantly ” ‘image of skidding car’ and ‘off’ “ then appears after 3-5 seconds I’ll try this on the next drive and report back! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adnan Halepota Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Hi, You need to press the traction control button for a few seconds then 2 lights will come on. But there is some thing that does kicks not sure shat that is. I have also experienced the same. But the above will really make a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
