ASR button. Switch could be bad and/or a possible fuse. Thoughts from the rest of the community?

ASR=Acceleration Slip Regulation....regulation? we don't need no mo regulation! JK aside, how do you know it isn't working? If you try a burn-out and it feels like car is going to shake apart...its working. You can have it tuned to where it is off on start up and on when button is engaged. Sounds like someone has done that.

Hmmm all good thoughts ill try it

What fuse is it?

Mine has been broke for almost a year, I kind of like it that way.

Dash light says ASR off?? If it does, and you can't do a burn-out something is deff. wrong. Try a free scan @ Advanced Auto...it might show something.

Thats weird, I thought anytime something with traction control failed the system was automatically turned off.

Nooooooo, it is on, when i hit the switch off it turns back on

You may be right...I've never had a problem with mine.
I did re-name mine the "'embarrassment button"...if you pull into burnout box and forget to turn it off it will shake-pop-rattle and embarrass the hell-out-a-ya

bjonesws6

Yea i want it off

Did that many a time when I brought my Accord (my daily) to the track. Get up there, all nice and lined up...yank the e-brake and pin the throttle. Felt like the car was going to break my neck with TCS enabled. Sit there, try and hide the embarrassment and fumble for the button. Lolz.

Gently remove the bezel that the ASR switch in on, it should just pop off if you pry it slightly.

See if there is something like this plugged in behind the switch:

It is a reverse module that changes the "always on" default setting to "always off" unless you hit the switch to turn it on. If you find that one is plugged in it may have gone bad or become unplugged.

I have one on my car and it works great. The dash light is always lit saying it is off which is a bit annoying though.

It is just one thing to check but I would check to see if the switch is properly plugged in behind the switch bezel anyway. It may just be that the switch is not plugged in.

I'd love to get a custom gauge overlay from 6LE, one of it's custom touches would be to have them replace TCS OFF with the either BurnOut or Beast Mode.

bjonesws6

I just unplugged it and will see later what happens

defaults to on when there is a problem with the system no law suits kinda deal no other light on (abs) any codes that you know of ??

bjonesws6
