Locate fuse. Prosper.
Locate diagnosis for ATC/VDC, locate symptoms, follow troubleshooting to root cause. Prosper.

Also the 'bulb' for the VDC is not a 'bulb', it's an LED, and is very, very unlikely the reason why the light isn't coming on.

Hope that helps !

Did you buy this car modified??

I wonder if the revious owner did any "mickey-mousing" to permanently disable the VDC

Not truly off unless u pull the vdc fuse or set up a toggle. I had mine on a toggle so people knew when it was on vs off.

Just curious as to why you want it off if you have AWD? Only time I have ever turned mine off was when I was stuck in snow.

Drag racing (at the track)

At the track, i had to turn mine off. A little wheelspin on the start (still possible even with AWD) and your run is done.

But other than racing, or snow..my VDC is always on.
