[s-cars] Bulb Out Symbol Fixed, was Lobotomizing the Light Control Module

[Sean Douglas]

I figured out an easy way to prevent the bulb out symbol from coming on
the Autocheck when using e-code headlights.

I bypassed the light control module (LCM) by modifying the wiring. The
LCM is located in the engine bay inside the water proof box and is a
double size relay. After removing the relay, the black relay mount is
pulled up and the tan relay holder can be release with 4 clips and
pushed down. There was enough slack to pull the relay holder up to work
on the wires. I cut the following wires and joined them together with a
butt connector:

yellow/brown <----> yellow
yellow/green <----> yellow/black

This effectively bypasses the LCM and tricks it into thinking the light
are off, thereby not displaying the bulb out symbol.

I think this is much easier to do than modifying the LCM itself.

See link for a picture of the wiring diagram.
