If you can do that it will be in the owner's manual on how it is done. If you don't have the manual go to the GM owner's site and download one, it is free

SOURCE: Should you disable the traction control on a 2006

the role of the Electronic Control System is to avoid wheel spinning on icy or 'snowed' surfaces. When the system that one wheel having traction is spinning faster than the others than it will apply brake to that particular wheel to help it to recover its traction.
In the reality, the system is more active when you are accelerating after a stop on icy surface. Once the vehicule got its speed the system should be less active .
Globally, this system should help to keep the traction at its best under any condition.
However, my personnal experience is that you could have to desactivate the system if you are driving in heavy snow condition. Under these particular conditions, the system could apply brakes to a point/frequency that your vehicule will run as a turtle.

In conclusion, there is nothing bad if you let the system manage by itself, unless you don't like the feeling or unless the system generates more problems than benefits.
Hope I have ansered your questionning.

My wife called in a panic as she had all the same messages & lights as described. I went to take a look (night time, dark), and the big puddle of brake fluid on the driveway kind of gave away what the problem is. Check your fluid.

How to turn off traction control on 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Alexandre, check in your owners manual for small off button on the shifter under the large engage button. If you do not want traction control on in your vehicle check your manual for traction control fuse location and remove fuse. I can not say this is a wise thing to do, because your traction control is a safety feature for your vehicle. ABS braking system will be lost if you pull the fuse also. Pulling the fuse will disable abs, traction and stability control. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

Stabilizer traction control light is on, and lost cruise control

Cruise control will always disable itself when any CEL light is present, so that's normal. The Stabilitrak light problem is a known common problem with these. Your steering wheel position sensor needs to be replaced. Mine does it every morning IF my steering wheel wasn't put into a straight position when I parked it. Straighten the tires, turn the ignition off and restart. Light will go out.

My 2006 HHR traction control keeps engaging when it should not be

The traction control should engage any time the front wheels slip. The only way to disable it is to put the transmission in low 1. If it is engaging (Driver Information Center message) when the wheels are NOT slipping then you need to take the car to the dealer. The HHR is almost all computer controlled and there are very few user adjustments.
