From the factory, Volkswagen unfortunately did not give the Passat a button to activate and deactivate the Traction Control System (TCS). Fortunately, the vehicle does have the ability to turn it on and off, and is simply lacking the button (and a few other items) to make it functional. If you want to give your Passat a button to turn on and off the traction control, this kit from USP has you covered. For your convenience, USP has put together a kit with all necessary parts for an easy installation.
Unfortunately because all NMS (B7) Passats were produced in the US, there is no OEM European button that fits beside the shifter. Therefore, USP utilizes a small switch that can be installed in a location of your choice. We recommend either drilling a small hole in a blank plug beside the shifter simply tucking the button into the center console if you do not wish to drill.
Comes pre-assembled for a plug and play installation!
Installation Instructions
Some 2014+ models will require coding to the ABS control module. Below is an example of revised long coding in the ABS module needed for the traction control to be turned on and off. Please save your original coding before making any changes. Recoding of your module is done at your own risk.
