Default Traction control light, no code 1214

Aloha gang, well, I've owned my 01 6 speed for almost 3 years now. The traction control light has always been on. I drag race this car alot, didn't really care. I bought and installed a meyhem 2 cam kit, turned out great and awesome power. When I drove on the dyno, funny thing, the traction control light went out at very low rpm, and traction control was working. Button would not shut it off. My tuner had to fake it out. Came off dyno, light stays on, still get "service traction control" messege. I have no traction control codes. When I drag race, my rear tires spin faster than the fronts, just like when I was on the dyno. Do get that one. Here's my codes, the last two codes are from when the steering wheel moved when disconnected during my spec clutch install.
C1286-H...... VSES sensor uncorrected.
C1287-H...... steering position sensor
C1288-H.......steering position sensor

I would say your problems are from the steering position sensor.

The 01+ SWPS does not have the analog "position" signal that the older SWPS has. I saw that when I looked at the schematics to see how possible it would be to swap a newer ABS system into the older cars.
