Hello im new to jk forums and my first question i have is how do you fully turn ESP off besides just hitting the button, tried doing some doughnuts and was quickly stoped :( has anybody cracked it yet??

 

I haven't played with the ESP in my 12 yet, but in my 2010, you hold the ESP button for 5 secs and you hear a ding and see "ESP OFF" in the dash info read out. But you had to be in 4WD.

 

Ya only time i ever see that is when i put it in 4L, and iv held down for quite some time nd no response

 

Search for steering wheel dance, there is a sequence that you can do to turn it off, not just temporary. I had to do this after my lift went on since my abs would activate going round on off ramps and such....

 

And this steering wheel dance works on 2012??

 

2010 only get read out in 4L also

 

For some reason the manual does not list how but it does say there are three modes in 4H. On, Partial Off and Off. Partial of you press the button and it allows some spin, if you hold it down for about 7 seconds it will chime and a message will display saying that ESC is now off. Allows for the same thing as being in 4L where wheel spin is concerned. Some people have said that the computer will activate ESC if you travel over a certain speed, but I have traveled at 60km/h and no change.

This is in a 2012 JKU Sahara

 

And I'm way happier about this than doing a steering wheel dance. Not sure why it wasn't this way from the get go.

 

I would love to be able to fully take it out when in RWD for some nice doughnuts rain/snow

 

If you do the "steering wheel dance" it will completely turn it off in 2wd as well as 4H, the only way to turn it back on would be to do the "steering wheel dance" again.
