Default Hyperflash harness

Hey guys working on putting in the Hyperflash harness to fix my turn signals not working issue. I've got to unplug the interior air temp sensor connector. How do I go about doing that? I've got the screws out that need to be off to take the dashboard knee pad off but just wondering how to unplug the connector.

Not sure you have to actually remove the temp sensor itself to install a hyperflash harness. I don't think it's attached to the outer trim panel you are removing.
It's the little Torx screw behind the grill that has to come out, along with the other two screws of course.
Now continue on and remove the driver's side knee bolster panel.

Next project will be getting the front bumper off and changing the drl lens. I've heard getting the bumper off is a pretty good job

You don't have to remove the bumper to take the lens out? How else do you get them out? I've got a bad leak in the driver side so I'm putting new all clear lens in plus I've got to solder in a new socket since water destroyed the original socket

there is an access panel underneath both sides providing adequate room to do what you need.

That's how I did mine - so much easier than taking the whole front fascia off.

Had some stuff come up yesterday so I'm starting back on the Hyperflash harness, I have the knee pad off from under the steering wheel. Just need to know which connector to unplug, the instructions aren't helping me much lol <br >

If I remember correctly, you remove the connector from the larger clear housing up top. Plug that into the base of the hyperflash harness, then complete the "splice" by plugging the other end of the hh into the top housing.

Edit: shows how much I know. You unplug the bottom connector. http://https://www.corvetteforum.com...y-kamil-d.html

Thankfully, you only need to do this once.
