    Question How do u work the ESP/Fan Mod ?????

    This may be a stupid question but I had the GSM Esp/Fam Mod installed with a
    lot of other Mods and can not find the instructions on how to engage and disengage it!
    If anyone could post or PM me It would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    There should be two rocker switches installed under the dash - sorta to the front of the steering column.

    On mine, the left rocker controls the fan, while the right rocker controls the ESP. Reach under there with your left hand, and find the rockers - throw one and see which one it is: if it's the fan, you should hear it kick on; if it's the ESP, you'll see the ESP/BAS and "squirrely car" lights come on, on the right side of the instrument cluster.

    The fan switch may be wired to always be hot, so even with the key off, it'll fire the fan - I re-wired mine to only work when the key is on. The ESP mod will stay on until you turn the car off with the switch off (i.e. once you turn it on, you can't turn it back off without restarting the car - flipping the rocker back off isn't enough).

    Hope that helps...

    Tried what you said and sure enough it worked just as you stated thank you!
    I didn't want to try it until I knew exactly what to do!
    Did not feel to much diff but I also have the quaiff Diff installed so that may be why!

    Try this to see the difference the ESP kill swich makes:

    Do this same thing once or twice with the ESP enabled (stock), than do it again after killing the ESP:

    Find a smooth and hopefully empty 90deg turn. If there's a little bit of dirt or water, all the better. Roll through the entry, and then punch it through the apex and exit of the turn.

    With ESP enabled, you should feel the engine cut out temporarily as the RPMs climb and the wheels start to spin. With ESP disabled, you should spin the tires through the turn, and it'll probably shift to second before you exit the turn (or shortly thereafter). Careful, 'cuz you'll also probably fling the rear-end around.

    Not recommending you drive that way, but it should show you the difference pretty clearly...



    EDIT: not sure how the Quaife will affect the above...

    I did that the other day and half way thru the turn I floored it and almost spun out the rear with both tires smoking ( I have a 392 stroker w/ ported heads and high flow exhaust)! That was with the ESP engaged! I will try it with the ESP off and see what I find !
    Thanks for the help!!
