    Default sport button, traction control button

    HI all, forgive my ignorance here but iam new to modifying my car etc but i love my vectra so want it to be all it can be!!! if i buy these buttons i.e the sports control and the traction control, do they actually work on my car and if so how?

    Mine doesn't have sport and the TC doesn't work (yet) but I still fitted the switches, makes it look so much better.

    It won't give you TC if you don't have it already. It just turns it off.

    I know that, but i do have some sort of Traction Control... the light in the speedo lights up when i start the car and the car looses power when the car slips or i try to get a wheel spin...
    I was hoping the switch would turn it off like it does in the Omega with TC..
