Installing Traction Control Activation Button

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 6, A6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Accessory kit

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.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Light on the Opel Grandland X

While driving, if you notice the tyre pressure warning light coming on, first check the actual inflation pressure of the tyres and, if necessary, restore the pressures recommended by the manufacturer. After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off.
