00 S80 T6 Cannot Disengage Traction Control

Post by muddblood »

Good day. I have a 2000 S80 T6 and I cannot get the traction control to turn off. Not a huge deal in every day driving, but I need it to be off to have the emissions test done. Is there a fuse or relay I can remove temporarily to get the emissions test done? If pulling a fuse/relay is an option, would it mess anything else up on these delicate cars?

I would also like to point out that none of the buttons in the location work (STC, power folding rear headrests, truck lock).

Just wondering why it is necessary to have the traction control off for an emission test?
Seems irrelevant to me.
A chance for me to learn something more here.

Have you kept the button pressed for two seconds?

I usually turn it off, is when stuck in snow and the wheels need to spin to get the car to move.
