Traction Control

Hey guys. I currently just installed the ss/sc injectors in my car and re-tuned the tranny and the engine for the bigger injectors. yesterday while cruising to work my traction control light came on..then went off. i did some searching on this problem but there seems to be no answer on the forums. i talked to celicacobalt and he has the problem too. but he thinks its something to do with the throttle body sensor. does anyone have any idea on what this problem is or how it can be fixed?

only automatics have t/c. and i had this issue before i was tuned very rarely but ever since ive had some tuning done for the turbo, the t/c light is on 95% of the time.

maybe the car became a trq monster and sheelspins without you knowing it and traction control is forced to stay on lol, i dont know though, your guess is as good as mine righ now, who needs traction control anyway, i was mad may car had abs

any codes? sometimes a code will get logged but no CEL, just so a shop could see something is not quite right.

well if the tranny's tuned thats probably why the traction control light's coming, on, TC is probably malfuntioning due to the tune, maybe you should turn tc off alltogether, especially if you're saying that it shifts harder when the light's on
