    Hey guys I’m new here and I’ve been doing some research and can’t seem to find anyone who’s had this problem and was looking for some potential answers I have a 17 4wd limited crew max on 35s and when it’s was on stocks or on wet pavement it has no issue spinning the tires but every time I try and spin both on drive pavement it goes into a what I would call a “limp mode “ evey dash light and I mean EVERY dash light comes on and the truck loses power and it’s got me stumped on what could be causing this

    How long are you spinning the tires before the lights kick on?

    I’d say maybe 30 seconds but every time it dose it I cut the truck off and back on and it’s fine

    Turn em all off. Press TC button, then hold for 3 seconds like you have been, then hold for another 3 seconds.

    I was thinking maybe somthing with the brake sensors being the lsd still on and having bigger tires I never had the problem when it was still on the stock size

    That should solve your limp mode issues.

    Thanks for the help turned all the nannies off and it burned the 35s down like it was nothing guessing the nannies don’t like the bigger tires

    It’s not really off it’ll let you spin them in a straight line but the stability trac still kicks in

    Don’t forget. You’re beating the crap out of your trans, leaf springs, and tires by doing all these burnouts.

    Did it see a picture of Oprah? Happens to me once a month. The previous owner of my house had a subscription to her magazine and I have to see her on the cover once a month before it hits my trash can.

    I envy your recklessness, I don't have the balls to beat my truck as much as I want to.
