Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
If you want to have the switch work but not have it go quiet at low speeds when in the loud mode then you have to disconnect the speedometer lead.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

For some reason I can't find prior posts that discussed modifying the relay wiring so that my PSE doesn't shut off at low speeds. I know I want to cut the grey/pink wire (vs. cutting the diode) but I can't figure out how to get that panel off to get to the wires. I removed the nut from the right side (and dropped and lost it somewhere) but I can't figure out how to loosen up the left side closest to the driver door. I did see a couple of links referring to Renntech but i'm not subscirbed to that. Can someone help inform me on how to do this?
I have no clue.............but if I was you I would subscribe to Renntech. It is free and you can donate what you want to keep the site active........in turn helping guys like you.
I had my PSE modified so it doesn't shut off, and now I have to wear absorbent underwear. You sure you want that... OH.. Wait... does PSE stand for Prostate Spectacularly Enlarged?
I did the mod shown on renntech, works like a charm, and I can still shut bypass valves off from console switch. Does unplugging plug in your pic still allow switch functionality?

Unfortunately my poverty-spec C2 didn't come with the console switch so I can't confirm this, Dave. However, my best guess is that it'll render the switch useless...it'll still stay in noisy mode even if you flip the console switch to "quiet".
If you unplug the connector at the valve then it will always be on the Loud setting. If you want to have the switch work but not have it go quiet at low speeds when in the loud mode then you have to disconnect the speedometer lead.

I did this a couple of years ago and it keeps the switch functional but disables the low-speed on/off feature.
exactly right. This is the correct mod! Easy to execute, and switch remains functional. Took me about 5 min, because I was extra careful...

If you really want it to be permanent you can also remove the vacuum lines along with this relay to save a couple of pounds of weight. I did that a few years ago since I had no need to keep this extra hardware.
Of course I kept all of it in a bag in case I change my mind though.
Sorry for the delay in update. i did the mod subzero recommended and as others mention, it takes 5 minutes. My only difficulty was getting a wire cutter to the diode (it's a little cramped). Actually ended up breaking the diode in half and then I just cleaned it up from there. Thanks a lot for the detailed diy subzero!
I did this last night (interrupted the circuit with the diode) and am very pleased. WTBS, I left the diode there and only bent it up about 3/16 of an inch so I could solder it back later if I need to.
thats what I did too. I like that the switch still quiets the exhaust.
