Default TCS intermittenly works- won't turn off after visit to stereo shop

I've disconnected battery 5 or 6 times, now fog lites work, still no turning off T/ Control button. Had stero shop hard wire radar detector and GPS to turn off with ignition switch. Kinda pissed now I can't do burnouts - drifting. Any ideas guys? Thanks, Richard

this might be a simple question but did you take it back to the place that wired that stuff up and ask them to fix it nicely?

have you checked fuses?

damn thats a kick in the ***.

Only thing i can think of is that the DiabloSport Predator tuner has a On/Off switch for Traction Control. it may be able to disable it working around what it the stereo shop messed up. Other then that I got nothing sorry man.
