Yeah not to mention pretty much every failure mode on this car that's documented requires a restart (shut off car and turn ignition back on) to clear it, so it would make sense that the yaw fault does too.

I do wish there was a way to get rid of the brake/throttle interlock without losing ABS entirely.

Maybe ECUTEK will have this feature? I would imagine its just a simple programming change.

I do believe that the UpRev tune (which I have) has a toggle in their software to disable the brake/throttle interlock ...
Contacted them directly and they said that toggling off this interlock will cause the car to respond 'almost' like pulling the fuse, but weren't any more specific than that.

I was led to believe that the ABS is independant of the ABLS and is never turned off.

Anybody know for sure ???

Yet another possibility emerges !!!

We Will get to the bottom of this ...
