Default Traction Control button not working

I've got an 05 with the JHP door lock upgrade. A few weeks ago my traction control button and door lock button stopped working. I believe the door lock upgrade from JHP piggy backs with the traction control switch. I replaced the traction control button hoping that would fix it, but still nothing. This happen to anyone? What am I missing?

Make sure you don't have a bulb out in the running lights.

Man, I bought a cheaper kit off of Ebay to do this last year. It came with all of the same components except the new bezzel with the opening for the door lock next to the traction control.. Can not for the life of me find a new bezzel with two openings and not all or one. /endthreadjack

Mine quit working on me for a while, TC was turning itself off and i could not get it back on. At the same time I was fighting an idle issue and once I swapped the TPS sensor, both problems went away. Im not sure how the TC could be related to the TPS sensor but it worked for me.
