If you hold the button down for 8 seconds it says it's off. I haven't tried to see if anything kicks back in but I've gotten in the habit of always turning it off. The truck just seems to drive better in normal traffic without it.
i was wondering if i was the only one that noticed that...

is this only an issue on 13+ trucks? i have yet to have a problem other then hitting a rev limiter on a shift and snuffing it out.

my buddy's 11's are the same way

but when one of his dogs chews through the ABS sensor wire, it'll do a burnout from here to tomorrow

Well...I was at the beach yesterday and thought about this thread so I turned the Advancetrac off and tried to do a donut in the sand. Denied!
It would get about 180* then completely fall on it's face.
Time to start chasing down ABS wires.....

I put a relay into the ABS system and wired that to my toggle switch around December.... Highly recommend it!

If you saved that wiring schematic or what you did you would make a few people here very happy.

I would build something like this. The spades go into the fuse box where the fuse was. And then you just turn off the switch and cuts power. No cutting wires, easily returnable to stock form.

Yeah that would work. Just pull the fuse and figure out which side has power and plug the spade into the other. Then run it to your upfitter. Doing this way to have abs on you have to have your switch always up. If you are ocd and that bugs you. Make the setup above but instead of a switch use a relay and use the upfitter to operate it.

My preference would definitely be switch down when not activated. LOL
