those are good diagrams, and it seems you have everything hooked up right. Does your scanner show the brakes and clutch are both disengaged? Looks like you need to take the power away from 35 unless Im reading it wrong.

OK, I just re-read your first post, and you said they both said disengaged. Was hoping it was going to be something simple like that.

on efilive, there is no spot where you check auto or manual. I find this weird. Like my manual tune has all the auto info in it.

I got it to work.

This is how I have it wired....

Lt blue wire on TAC is going straight to a good ground.
The purple TCC wire and the Clutch wire are hooked together and recieve +12 when the brakes are not applied.
The extended brake wire gets +12 at all times.


Works like a charm and cancels on the brake or the on/off switch.
