Look at the interior around the lighter area...there should be a switch labeled: TCS. I cant remember if there is a RPO about this.

It makes difference when is activated, otherwise cant think of anything else. Flip the switch and you are on your own. Its really helpful on wet conditions.

Under the hood there will be a black box on the left hand side of the engine compartment, that has cables coming out of it.

You can see it in the top of this picture to the right of the battery.
