I'm pulling into traffic. Low boost. VDC is off. Break loose in 2nd and 3rd a little.
Then, all of the sudden the SLIP light comes on - immediately followed by the SES too.
Car never shuttered or cut fuel or hit brakes or anything like it would with VDC on.

BUT, LOOK AT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL!!!

It was all lit up like a friggin' Christmas tree.
Shut it off and back on again. SLIP still lit solid.
So, I reset the ECU at the next traffic light.




ANY IDEAS???

 

I didn't know your car was boosted !! You running Speed ventures next month ???

 

wow really is lit up ..

 

when all are lit up like that, its change your brakes time

 

Yep. It's gonna be a TEAM BUKKAKE reunion in Pahrump!!!

Nope. I have StopTech BBK. Besides, that's not the point.
The point is that the SLIP light shouldn't come on when VDC is OFF.

 

Brakes Brakes Brakes..... Happened to me back in Feb. just check your fluid level and pad's. have you turned your rotors before?

 

I had my slip light come on every time I spun tires and my vdc was off. But since you reset the ecu did the come back on??

 

Heres the test turn the VDC off and go do donuts, when the Slip Light comes on then you can prove your self wrong mmmmmmmmm k. When the VDC is off, it isn't really all the way off just bypassing cutting the throttle, it is still going to monitor.

EDIT: not trying to be an ***, just sounds like it.

 

Yeah. Into the trash when I installed my BBK years ago. New pads last month.

Not sure what year/model you have. But, when my VDC is off, it is off. I can burnout and do as many donuts as I want. My slip light does not come on when my VDC is off. Never has. Fuel cut and brakes when VDC is on, of course. Need that relay from KP.

 

Same here on my '03 Touring. No slip light when VDC is off.

 

hmmm mine always came on even with the vdc off, but the fuel cut off and brakes did not engage as it did with the vdc on. this was on my 03 touring. but i have a base 08 now. so no more worries.

 

I have an 03 touring

 

Maybe it's a VEGA$ thang???

 

I don't have FI, just stock.
Sometimes when i turn off VDC and start drift, slip light comes on when i mess up and it STAYS on but when i restart the car its all good,

 

I have an 04. VDC Off the slip light comes on still. Do a few donuts or drifts (basically break grip for more then 30 seconds) then the slip lights stays on, and I cant turn my VDC back on until I shut the car off.

I've found that once the Slip Light and VDC Lights are both on the car does not cut throttle whatsoever!

 

????????

 

I've seen the brake , VDC and slip light come on for lack of fluid, but never combined with the CEL.

 

i use to have a problem with it launching on DR'S at the track with the procharger setup the vdc was off but if i got on it good enough the slip light would come on but not cut fuel idk just reset the ecu or restart the car either works

 

Pay attention, add brake fluid.

 

It's your brake fluid level....add a bit and you should be good.
