Subject: Re: How do you bypass TCS on '92 - '93 9000's?


Hey Red, Thanks for the info. I found a copy of the TSB with the switch instructions and it says specifically that this mod was for manual transmnission cars only. Both of mine are autos. I know, I wish they were 5 speeds, but they aren't... Also, the TSB info says that for a '92 you have to swap the ABS module with a '93 or later one. Bummer. I might give it a try on the '93 first and see if it will in fact work on an automatic. Maybe they only though it would be owners of the standards that would want to disable the "feature". -Fred "Red Aero" <redaero93nopsamail.com> wrote in message news:3b791c80$1nopsamumass.edu... > I installed the kit from the dealer on my 93 Aero.
