How can I stop the wing....?

.... from moving up and down without causing a warning light?

Thanks for your help.

Take and cut the blue/green wire. Tape the ends off or pull it out of the harness. Next splice the green/yellow wire with the gray/brown wire. This should disable the light and allow the unit to think the tail is present and working. It is just a bypass.

Thank you for your help. I'll try it tonight.

Stephen,

Thanks for your help.

I just cut the blue/green wire and the wing is now fixed in position.

I located the thick green/yellow wire but could not find the gray/brown wire.

Here are the wires I have:

brown/red
thick brown
thin brown
red/blue
black/thick
black/thin
black/brown
blue
gray

thanks.

I believe the GT2 wiring harness will fix your problem.

I checked again and that is right. Pull the plug at the tail over in the right side of the motor. Look at the plug going to the tail, not the body. You will have two gray wires, one with a brown stripe and one without. You also should have yellow/green. Those go together. The other side of the harness is different so look at the tail portion.

Sthephen,

I looked on the wing end of the wires last night and will pull the plug tonight.

Thanks again.
