Unfortunately, Volkswagen did not equip the vehicle with a button to activate and deactivate the traction control system (TCS). Fortunately, the vehicle has the capability to turn the system on and off; it just lacks the button to activate it (and a few other components to make it functional).

If you want to add a button to activate and deactivate traction control, purchase the kit and proceed with the installation by starting with the installation of the additional relay in the relay box. After making the necessary electrical connections, bring the control wire into the cabin where the button will be installed in a convenient position in a pre-existing housing on the centre console.
