Traction control going apeshit

[Spudcannons]

My traction control is going apeshit at strange times after I went wheeling this weekend. Some corners but not sharp ones. On straits with a bit of crown or when it just feels like messing with me. Any thoughts? 32* psi right now

Is your steering wheel straight?

Steering wheel straight?

Is there a Wheel speed sensor on a jk? There has to be...

I've had a wheel speed sensor wire in my pickup get caught on some sticks while hunting... Did all kids of crazy stuff. Might look into that.

If there is a cut on the JK wires it'll normally throw the esc and abs lights on the dash right away. And they will stay on.

Good to know.
Mine was a 2006 Chevy pickup and it did some CRAZY stuff. Brakes were pulsing into corners and hardly even working. I pulled the abs fuses until I could get home.

The wheel appears to be straight with the tires dead straight, damn close if not perfect. It could have some shit stuck in the wheels or messed up a wire but I would think it would trip a code... Would being geared too low do anything?

Did you just/recently have work done on your jeep? Something could be off on the set up

This might be a dumb question... But I am going to ask anyways. Does youe ECU know that you are running larger tires. What I mean is have you programmed your larger tire via an AEV ProCal or SuperChips or the like?

 

[Spudcannons]

Yeah procal at 35

 

[OverlanderJK]

Yeah procal at 35

That's probably why. You need to set the procal for your actual tire size and not the one written on the sidewall.

I'll try that. Any idea why the procal says go off sidewall?

Says not to use mfg measurements.

 

[ChaosNein]

AEV says measure the tire and do not go off what is on the tire itself. Not all 35" tire are the same size... This might help...

Thanks I guess I misread it. Weird it was fine until now

 

[Spudcannons]

Should have read the full instructions not just the quick start

 

[Spudcannons]

This seems sadly true my 35" tires are really 33.75" :banghead:

Sounds about right. My 37" are 35.5"

If your wires were cut like overlander said the lights would be on all the time, and you traction control would not work at all. Mine would do that to after I put bigger tires on. My steering wheel would not stay straight, so it always did that so I just cut my wire not the best solution, but I don't mess with tc anymore lol

Hey Drew,

I am looking to get a tire carrier and really like the evo with the rock corners and saw some with a tube slider at the bottom of the corners. How can I go about getting some?
