tracktion control

Hi, i have a 99 mustang gt and after instaling my shortthrow shifter, my traction control button doesnt work anymore. i was woundering if anyone knows what the fuse is for the traction control.

There should be a list in you owners manual that tells you what each fuse is for.

You should be able to see just by looking at each fuse.

When you took the console apart to do the shifter did you perhaps bump any wiring/plugs? Just another thought??

Maybe you lost a wire when you took console apart. Does the traction control still activate? Will find my manual and get back to you.

Check to make sure you got hte harness plugged back in good to the button. Other than that, just start checking fuses. Im guessing it would be one of the smaller blade fuses.

Huh . . I guess I haven't really tried it on the Mach. I usually turn it off as soon as I start the car.
