Acl Disable, 2000 3.4 Gl

[Youngblood77]

I got a 2000 3.4 GL, and I'm considering disabling the ACL. On the GandAmGT forums, there's a mod that cuts a wire on the BCM. ( on 99 and 2000 GA's ) And from what I can see, I've got the same set-up under my dash as a GA....anyone done this?
Thanks guys,

" ALC bypass
at connector C2 find A3 the yellow/black wire, and B2 light green/black wire.. be careful because there are two light green/black wires on that connector.. the one you want is closest to the yellow/black wire.

cut these wires again leaving as much wire as possible attached to the BCM.. simply tie the two wires together and tape them up real good. (this is the same thing as removing ambient light sensor and adding a jumper wire)

The BCM will now think that it is daylight all the time and it will not energize the relay to turn on the headlights.

i did it .. it works.. you get manual headlight switch control.. no more automatic crap. You should do it with the glove box out.. not under the dash.. way easier.

are we supposed to have lights under the dash cause I don't?

Yep. the lights you see in the pics are the courtesy lights. ( the ones that shine on your feet ) The guy who owns the GA in the first pic swapped his out for a red one, but mine's stock. I tried a blue one, but it don't light things up hardly, so I went back to clear. You can't normaly see those bulbs, they shine through a hole in the plastic.
