the traction control on a 97-98 (gen 2) Mark VIII gains its input from a speed sensor mounted to the rear ABS signal. It compares that wheel speed input with the wheel speed input from the front wheel speed sensor. perhaps the problem is in the front speed sensor?

try cleaning the sprocket, or look for a worn pick-up at the sensor.
