F45 position sensor disable

Just saw in another post about disabling F45 by putting a resistor on the shock lead and the need to also put a resistor on the position sensor. Anyone know what resistor value to use on the position sensor? Need ohms and watts both. Thanks

You just need a 10ohm 10 watt resister on the shock wire. Thats all I did and have never had an issue.

I put 15 ohm 15 watt resistors on each shock wire (came up with the value based on measuring shock resistance and current draw). I was a little puzzled by the post saying a resistor was needed on the position sensor as well because I didn't remove the sensor and it operates independently of the shock.

Thanks for the reply.

Worked for me.
