2006 Pursuit Traction Control

[Guest SweetC]

Is there any way to toggle the traction control on and off? also how to turn that annoying seat belt reminder dinger off?

The seat belt reminder is there to SAVE your life, wear your seat belt!!!! Everybody should have the same goal, to not go through a windshield!

A Pursuit is a G5 or Cobalt, correct? If so if you can turn the TC on or off you will have a button labeled to do so to the left of the driver wheel if I'm not mistaken.

Also I created a new forum topic for just these kinds of things cause I wouldn't really call this a how-to per say.

I understand that you don't like the ding, but I wouldn't recommend disabling it... and the only way to really disable it that I know of is to find the little tiny speaker that its hooked up to and remove it, but that might also remove other sounds the are played through it...

I have a used Chevy Cobalt at work, ill find where the button is for you 2mmorow.

Please where your seat belt.

Edit:

I just checked for you and if you dont have a button for the TC you dont have TC. Also when you start it up look at all the warning lights on your instrument panel if you dont see a TC light up for a second then you dont have it. My geuss is you dont ave ABS too and you can check the same way.

Also a way to turn off the T/C I found is to put it in the lowest gear, at least in cobalts not sure about g5's.

The G5 should be the same as the Cobalt, correct? I mean, there isn't anything different besides cosmetics primarily, right?

[markpetersonii]

That's correct. They are identical.

Ah ok, then the same technique will work on the G5 as well, just like was mentioned...

i do know for a fact that the cobalt ss has a TC toggle cuz my buddies that is in my car club has one. (driven his car before and toggled it myself) but again, that is the SS supercharged

and also agree with the seatbelt thing. i love my car for having the passenger side seat belt reminder. i always get after everyone that sits in my passenger seat and tell them, "if you don't put your seat belt on, it won't stop ringing." in reality, it does but the flashing icon in the middle of the dash annoys me after a while of flashing. lol

Same thing except that the G6 will ding every couple minutes or so after initial like 2 minutes of straight dinging

[danmccormick87]

Yeah, my car keeps dinging and people are like what's that and I'm reply "It's my car telling you to buckle the **** up!"

Same here!!!

[Ringo64]

I tell them that's the counter till the seat gets ejected through the roof

The sound of the seatbelt dinger is sent through the driver side door.

ROFL!!!

I just noticed, the person made one post, and never came back on the day they signed up.

Guess the use of seatbelts was too cool for them.

that same question in on Yahoo Answers.

[danmccormick87]

Hmmmm, do I sense a forum hopper, only lurks to ask questions, then disappears again?
