You also need to have acquired the Triforce of Courage from Princess Zelda and installed it on the engine.

I am reviving this thread for a simple question. Is there a way to engage "sport mode" but leaving the advancetrac light off, off? I just find it distracting.

It looks like when advancetrac sport mode is on (by brake and double tapping the TC button), the yellow traction off light comes on (the car with squiggly lines). I just want no light at all...

I figured once I have it on, it's on.... I'm not senile, yet lol. But I guess I just want a clutter free dash instrument cluster. I have all my displays off too when I drive. I just want to see empty blackness lol, just my speedo and odo is good enough for me.

But it resets every time you turn the engine off. If you get rid of the bulb it's going to be a pain knowing if its on or not, won't it?

True... But if I have to turn it on every time I start the car, I should see the words "advancetrac sport mode", for a couple seconds, then disappear. IMO, that's good enough.

Anyway, sounds like there's no way of shutting off that bulb but having the actual sport mode still on

If you're that determined just pull the bulb. I'm sure it's just a mini bulb.

Nothing a well placed strip of electrical tape won't cover up

Ocean City is great. However the Potomac is a little cold in DC yet.

LOL - like Mortal Kombat??? double click TC - on the little joystick on the steering wheel tap, left, right, left, up, down, left, down, up then OK - all within 3 seconds. That'll shut off the light, keep you in sport mode AND if you're close to a Camaro a missile launcher will pop out of the truck and blow it up.

As much as you try, you just can't "Konami Code" it through life.


Another zinger for Joe to quote.
