To help with the dyno runs the other day, I pulled fuse 20. This solved the kickdown issue but created a new problem. Every time I accelerate too hard I can feel DSC kick in and then immediately prompted with an error message DSC UNAVAILABLE. When I turn the car off and then on, the error goes away, until I light up the rear wheels again.

I feel like this must be a simple solution. Anyone have any ideas?

 

hold the DSC down for 10-15 secs or until you hear the chime it will permanently disable the traction control

 

I think you need to list the codes. Check the connectors at the tops of the shocks. There are also wheel height sensors at each wheel that can cause the DSC to disable if the are loose or disconnected. A regular odb reader will not give the manufacturer specific portion of the code so you may need to get a diagnosis done at a dealer.

 

Thanks for the replies guys. That's not the issue. I was hoping some one who has pulled fuse 20 could chime in. I suspect it was a sensor calibration issue since the pumps had been disabled while the car was in use (on the dyno). Anyhow as of yesterday and 3 days of driving, it has appeared to have resolved itself.
