Default traction control

is it possible to pull a fuse or something to disengage the traction control? the button on mine does not work unless you hold it in continuously and that tends to be hard to do when your fighting the wheel. the light comes on when it breaks traction but when you hold the button the off light does not come on.

Fold up a business card and jam it in the crack above the button when you push it in. McGiver
Yeah, you really just need a new switch, yours isn't latching like it should. You should be able to push it in and it will stay till you push it again and it will turn off.
