Default Adding traction control to AU1?

I am trying to work out a way to install traction control to my wagon. Looking at the au 1 pcm pin 6 is the transmission control engine torque output.

Pin 62 is the traction control engine torque request pin.

What I would like to find out is the hardware rquired to make traction control work on a non traction controlled car. I know the computer supports it but I need to know what mechanical parts are required..??

Looking at wiring diagrams it appears to be just one switch to earth from pin 31 from the abs module.This is light blue /pink wire and it earths via the junction box.

If you have ABS and get an AUII fairmont wagon ecu and BEM it should be able to be done but hard work.

Also the ABS module is different, the traction unit uses a 4way ABS module not the 3 way unit that most AU 1 ABS cars have like my wagon :

Yup, you also need a ABS Traction Control Unit. Which are $1xxx. However there was one on eBay recently for $300. Not sure whether it sold.

// Edit...

It is relisted: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ABS-brake-mod...QQcmdZViewItem
