How to disable Traction Control (TC) and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) Completely

1) warm up the engine fully.
2) turn off the engine.
3) the side brake needs to be released.
4) press and hold the brake and start the engine.
5) while holding the brake, pull the side brake and let go of the brake.
6) press the brake 2 or more times and hold the brake.
7) while holding the brake, release and pull the side brake 2 or more times and hold the side brake.
8) while holding the side brake, press the brake 2 times.
9) TC and VSC lights should turn on.

If you can't turn the TC and VSC back on by pressing the buttons, then it worked. You'll need to turn off the engine to turn TC and VSC back on.

Note: I only tried this on MT. I'm not sure if it works on AT.
