Short answer No. Don't know where you get your numbers from. STC2778. Two wheel traction. SXC100010 4 wheel traction. STC2779 no traction. A lot of pennies though. Neither of your numbers show on Microcat or are listed at Rimmer Bros. Very old superseded numbers.

I would have thought you can't fit a traction control modulator to a non traction system. But not sure to be honest. ANR2238 has no traction control. ANR2239 two wheel traction i believe.
It uses the ABS sensors....
No some early poverty models had no TC.

I'm pretty certain mine doesn't but how do you tell? Other than looking for an ice-skating rink! I think the fact I had the rear wheel spinning when I was stuck in the mud kind of hints I haven't!
Early cars it was an optional extra but rear wheels only. May have been standard later. From 1999 I think 4 wheel TC was standard on all. That'd be around the time the THOR engine came in?

If the modulator is a ANR2238 or Wabco 4684130110 it has no TC.

There is but I'm not sure what he started out with. Mine's one of the first (1995), a DT (manual) with no TC and a lowline BECM.
So, does it need the higher BECM? Are the plugs on mine compatible? What year was his? The manual has the clutch using the same master cylinder unit for fluid. So, was it only for autos that didn't have a hole in the side for the clutch feed?
So many questions ...
Maybe there are other links I missed.

Couple of guys here changed it trying for 4W TC. Both electronics and hydraulics are stated as different but not explicitly stated why. 1 car wrecked afterwards (linked?!) and no response on the second (also wrecked?!) No note as to what they started with that I noticed.

Link here to 2W TC conversion: Retro fit Traction Control?
Says it worked for rear wheels using brake modulator ANR2239 and WABCO ECU ANR4898. I thought there was only WABCO C and D, the D being the 4WD one used on the later 1999 models. If this is correct then it looks like there were 2 WABCO C models, one with TC (ANR4898) and one without and then a final WABCO D with the 4W TC. Or maybe they just used the same ECU but with different modulators and the TC was just ignored with no input signal?
This link seems to support this theory: Traction control on a DSE
3 modulators - which I think Wammers put the part numbers up for some time back in this thread.
Thinking about it, a change like this would almost certainly count as a change to the vehicle in insurance terms and they'll fry your bank account at the idea. Personally I iked the idea of the steel washers in the later brake modulator and if for the prie of a second-hand ECU (£20) I could get TC working then way-hey!
The more I think about it the more I think it is a bad idea though. I've only got badly stuck once and that was before I got the Tirfur winch!

Just been out and checked mine. Modulator say ANR2238 on it. No TC light on the dash. Plugged the Nanocom in and it says no TC fitted. Seems to cover all avenues!
Interesting, the Nanocom said the WABCO was a 018223. No chuffing idea what that means but assume = ANR1250 as it is a 1995.

Yeah do that if you want a load of misinformation from people who haven't a bloody clue what they are on about.

I fitted 2 wheel traction control to mine,changed the brake modulator and computer for the right ones also scrubbed out the fluid res mine was ok but the one that came with the 2nd user modulator was minging.Fitted did a full by the book bleed now got traction at the back.

What's your model and year? Any idea if yours is a lowline BECM?
