I have a 61 plate zafira company car at the mo. It had traction control then I started to notice that it started to get a bit unstable around corners and in the wet. I have to carry a fair bit of weight in it and the tc helped. I seem to have turned it off somehow or it has broken. I gave it some beans from standing and it just spins. I had a tracke
r fitted and tbh I think its only been doin this since then but it may be coincidence. anyone know if there is a switch, some sites I've looked at say you can't turn it off which is what everyone seems to want to do so I can't find a solution to turn it on. sorry for the essay, any help greatly appreciated. thanks.

If it was switched off, there would be a light on the dash to tell you.
If you had turned it off by accident, it would be on again by default when you next started the car.

Car shouldn't be unstable round corners unless you've seriously overloaded it.

its only got chocolate in, it weighs a bit but its not like rubble. I have to drive a lot of cambered country roads and it wasn't an overly stable car before. The light used to flicker on when the traction control was in use, I could peel out now and it wouldn't come on. Could the guy who fitted the tracker have blown a fuse?

As said, the light would be on.

Does the light come on when you turn on the ignition? It should do, if not then it may have been disabled.
