Default skip shift delete is junk!

I just bought an '04 Bar.Blue,GTO with 35,000 miles and the skip shift feature that locks you out of 2nd has to go,i know there is plenty of people here that know about this.Can i manually unplug it from the trans or has to be done in the computer?

Either buy a eliminator that plugs in for like 20 bucks, or get your car tuned and have them turn it off with HPTuners or whatever program. The predator may also be able to take care of that for you.

Buy a 29 cent resistor and wire it into the plug and tape it off.

You can buy a 1.5ohm resister at Radio shack and do it yourself.

Actually it was a great way for GM to find a way around you paying a gas guzzler tax on M6 goats. (about $1000) You should be thankful they made it so easy to defeat
