Just pull the fuse and be done with it.

Who wants a mild sounding C6 with the LS3 engine?

Ok, if I just pull the fuse, the exhaust will be open all the time ?

Is anything else affected by pulling the fuse ?/

Thanks

Are you mounting it with the red wire facing the console, and white wire up? Hooking up ground (black wires). Blue antenna wire up? Hope this helps. Right from my instructions from Mid America.

Try a different bolt/nut/screw to attach the ground wire.
Mine didn't work after following the M2W instructions to attach it to a screw in the footwell fusebox. Used a VOM to find a viable ground and all was well.

There shouldn't be a problem hooking it up. It's basically replacing a fuse with another remote controlled fuse.

I believe in the Beer Fairy

Thanks, it was a bad ground. IT WORKS! The one they said to use wasn't good.
Now I can sneek in at night and not wake up the neighbors! Thanks for the heads up.
