Traction control button not working. (Programing, Probably)

[mitunakaptor]

I had a nice solid configuration for a while, started doing some deferred repairs (rear camera, cup holder replacement, repair a minor boost leak) I have a tune re flashed it just for good measure, the last time i remember the button explicitly working was during the last snow a few months ago while doing donuts in a parking lot, a few days later i happened to notice my car's traction control button didn't work (no damage or obvious reason).

I can still turn TC off via the left menu on the dash, but the button that I had no longer performs either function (TC/AdvancTrac) I fiddled around with Forscan for a while and couldn't fix it, after tinkering I now get an invalid configuration DTC that I cant get rid of even when restoring to my original AB file and the one I pulled from online.

I took the center console apart and manually jumped the wires to the TC button and no effect so I've ruled out the button, the wiring is solid too, I get no ABS DTC's and the TC control is enabled in the module in Forscan, I'm at a loss, I'd rather not take it to a dealer if I don't have to.

Anyone think they could upload their asbuilt data for their IPC from a 13 PP or screenshot it in Forscan so i can replicate their settings, thanks in advance.

If the wiring going to the switch itself is good, maybe it's a fault in the TCS system? But that's strange. Never heard of it not working but can be switched on via the left menu on the cluster. But as you said it's enabled through Forscan and you have no codes. No DTCs for the AWD system?

Some important questions for you:

What year do you own and is it a PP SHO?
What's the current mileage?
