Be aware you'll probably disengage your warranty at the same time.

Did you check your owner's manual to see if there is a method to turn it off?

In the US it's illegal to deny warranty coverage unless something you did directly damaged something.

That said, if you insurance company thinks they are covering a car with traction control, and you get into an accident and they find out you disabled it they can deny you coverage. Although if you can find the proper fuse, blow it and put it back in, and don't post anything on here, they can never prove that the fuse didn't blow during said crash.(I have no idea which fuse would do it, or what else removing said fuse could disable.).

Which Yarii have traction control? Mine doesn't.
