traction control?
I have looked everywhere in the car, no switch. When I turn on the car the dash lights show a TCS light. The car burns tire like crazy and doesn't push the pedal back on me. Seems like maybe the guy before me put the canceler in. Anyone else have a 1998 with similar symptoms?
Every bird I've seen that has traction control has the switch below the AC controls beside the cigarette lighter. If you don't have it you will just have an empty compartment there instead. Also look under your hood if you see a black box by your battery with lines going across the top of your engine you have it, if not you don't.

You do it with a pressure bleeder. If you dont maintain a certian fluid pressure it will mess with your abs, but not so sure about traction control since i dont think that the traction control has anything to do with the brake system rather it works on engine timing i believe. If im wrong someone please chime in..
Just bleed it normally. You can use a pressure bleeder by yourself or get some one to push the pedal the old fashioned way.

i never used a pressure bleeder, but i used 2 people...
For a T/A the TCS botton is in front of the shifter on the dash, BELOW the radio.
For Camaros, it's under the air vents and above the radio to the right of the fog light switch.

Those things just make it easier but the poor man can still get it done the old fashioned way.
When I had my engine out at a Pontiac dealer they disconnected the brake lines at the ABS block. They didn't do anything special, just hooked them back up and bled the brakes normally. The pedal felt real good. Now if after a good bleeding you still feel air in the lines the dealer can attach the Tech2 or whatever and cycle the valves. My car didn't need that done.
