I am still on SPORT 6 and love it. I have not played with anything outside of SPORT, where I started at 4, and ended up on 6

The other day, when I dropped my car off for the oil change, I set it back to OEM. When I picked it up, the whole way home I was like "WTF is wrong with my car"..... then it hit me as I was pulling into my garage.

Please note this is an old Controller that has been discontinued, the pedal assembly and removal remain the same but everything after that please disregard, as it does not apply to the newer controllers. We need to make a YouTube video of our techs installing the Controller, maybe that will be our next assignment haha.

Uninstall and reinstall the app. When prompted, allow all accessibility on the app.

Thanks for all the help!

Does the display portion of the controller, need to stay attached to the device, after it has been paired?

Wait I am confused boys. So the display is just that? The brains are in the harness??? I was hoping to get a second harness for the Camaro and if I ever decided I wanted to use my TC from my C8 I could just unplug the display (USB-C) and connect to harness of other car and be good to go.

As for install very easy.:
Open door, go get a beer, bullshit on Corvette Forum for a few minutes until doom light and such is off.
remove cover and take out 10MM bolt
push pedal assembly DOWN and it will unlock if you will from slot in floor.
Get a vacuum and take the opportunity to clean carpet LOL (obviously that was for me. Daily driver)
flip pedal around and locate harness. Push red safety clip up and squeeze adapter. Feel for it there is a small clip to push.
Connect harness
Put pedal back
There is a big loom of wiring above pedal when installed. I used a zip tie and zip tied the Soler harness to the factory big harness so its out of the way
Ran usb wire down the side of the center console for now. Later will get it into the console completely
Install software and pair

Great thread. Never heard of this before but it’s gonna be my first install. So if I read this correctly. I can install this but not have to mount the screen? I can use my phone and app to control it? I’d rather not have to mount anything like another screen on the dash. My car is TPW 29 Jan

When I first heard of this, I also thought, just push the pedal more. You guys have all convinced me, just ordered. For those that track their cars, do you leave it on the same setting as street (seems like sport 4 or 5 is the most popular setting). A valet mode also sounds like a massive benefit (not that I valet it, but if it's ever left with any shop out of my sight, it will be used)
