How to disable traction control
My 01 has traction control with a DBW throttle. I would like to disable the traction control all together. The button or switch on the dash resets to ON every time the truck starts up, so I would like to reverse that operation. I think SLP made something for the F-body that did this. Does anyone know how the traction control system operates and have any suggestions for defeating it?

Procedure in owner's manual:
1. Park the vehicle with the ignition off and the transmission in PARK.
2. Turn the ignition to RUN; do not start the engine.
3. Apply the brake pedal, press the accelerator pedal to the floor and then press the TAS on/off button and hold it down for at least six seconds.
4. Release the TAS button and both pedals.
5. Turn off the ignition and wait a few seconds.
The next time you start the vehicle, the TAS will not automatically come on. You can restore the automatic feature by using the same procedure.
