Go to install documents > scroll down to transmission > select either one of the following two:
!CAGS: $0.50 Radio Shack resistor
!CAGS: SLP Skip Shift Eliminator
Both work.

+1 for just using a resistor.
make sure you wrap it up real good with electrical tape.
when you eventually go to get the computer tuned, make sure you get it deleted from the computer, so you dont have to keep seeing the skip shift light.

if you're doing a burnout it wont cause "skip shift" to enable. It only comes on in part throttle situations at certain speeds. ex: like 15% throttle at 15 mph (disclaimer: i dont claim to actually know the cutoffs for skip shift, just that its only when driving easy) basically if it slides into 4th gear when doing a burnout, you really are to blame LOL

Exactly, the skip shift was just there to give the car a slightly better gas mileage rating, and therefor avoiding the gas guzzler tax. The eliminator is significantly cheaper than the tax.
I just bought my car last week and it had a little card that explained it in the glove box. Without going and getting it right now lol i'm almost positive it said if the gas pedal was depressed 25% or less it would activate. Figured it out a little on the WV turnpike heading back home. First two toll booths killed me, at the third though skip shift didn't stand a chance
