Default Wiring help needed: YAW/Lateral Acceleration Sensor

Can someone breakout a service manual and tell me what the 4 wires do that go into the sensor? I know, I need to buy a manual soon, looking for recommendations there too. TIA!

I have SI at home and will break out that schematic for you later tonight. It will be for an 05 but, there shouldnt be any differences.

Dark green is 5 volt reference. Next over is Light Blue which is low reference. Next over is Dark Blue which is yaw rate sensor signal and last is light green with black and it is lateral accelerometer signal. I cannot get up a pic until later.

Spoke too soon: is it possible you reversed it up? I just took a look and the middle two wire colors are flipped:

Dark Green, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Light Green with Black Stripe going left to right. I want to make sure I intercept the Yaw Rate sensor wire.

I pulled an 06 schematic. Should be the same color coding. What year is yours? I will double check.

BTW, my 2010 manual has an entirely different connector, and even different color wires.

Default Ok.. one more cross reference, what is the wire color for an 07' C6Z06?

I'm trying to do what another racer here did:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/1577118078-post54.html

I'm trying to defeat the computer in a race only C6 with no TPMS sensors in the wheels, and still be able to get all the Active Handling nannies OFF! So question is does an 07' C6Z06 have a yellow Yaw Rate Sensor Signal wire? Thanks for everyones time, this has been very helpful so far!!

Default i found my wire

it is not yellow, it is dark blue as indicated by a post further up. my connector looks identical, and i will try to cut the blue wire and see what will happen.
Or can i just unplug it and that will do the same trick ?

remember i want AH copletely removed and not go into limp mode or loose ABS



regards
Rune
