2015 R TracDSC
Ive been trying to enable TracDSC mode on my 2015 FType R, and either I can't read a manual, or I'm just confused. According to the manual:
To select TracDSC, press and hold the DSC switch for less than 3 seconds. The DSC Off lamp will illuminate and the Message center will briefly display TracDSC.
I don't see any of this notifications anywhere on the message center, no matter how long i hold or flip the Dynamic Mode switch for the life of me. Am I hitting the wrong switch?

Ok I spoke too soon. The only thing I can get to appear by pushing the DSC button is DSC ON or DSC OFF. Followed by an icon of a car with squiggly tread marks. No TracDSC icon or text appears anywhere.
So am I missing something?

someone will correct me if I'm off on any of this;
- rain snow mode: maximum interference/traction control
- normal mode: normal traction control
- tracDCS: track mode with minimal traction control
- DCS off; (push and hold button for more than 3 seconds and the dash light will illuminate in red and DCS off message comes up): no traction control and no interference at all.
....at least that's how mine works.

1. For TracDSC depress the button with the skid marks just momentarily. The yellow "DSC off" warning light will come on, and "TracDSC On" will display for only a few seconds in the display between the 2 primary guages.
2. To turn DSC off entirely, hold down the "skid" button for 3-5 seconds and similarly the yellow warning light will come on and stay on, but the center display will instead say "Warning DSC Off" for just a few seconds before the regular display reappears (whatever you've programmed it to display).

Bonus: it does explain what dynamic launch does on the V6S.

This is the closest I've seen, and it's still lacking:

To complicate this, it is very likely that the answer is different depending on installed options: transmission, eDiff, std. LSD, TVB, active suspension, etc.

Seeing how Lance is retired...
Here's my Dropbox folder of all the technical docs I grabbed when someone else posted them a few years back, plus some other miscellaneous PDFs that I thought might be useful. Worth going through them all. Note these mostly were 2014 docs, so things may/have changed.

Yes...it is time to go on a holy quest to find out exactly how DSC & TracDSC are each implemented, and what all is shut down when DSC is entirely shut off.
