Right, the problem is that all the signals are on a multipin connector, so
the easiest thing to do is to jam a jumper wire into the back of the
connector.
Note that the multipin connectors _do_ fail. Not too often, but it
happens.
When you have the one in the trunk apart, pack it with dielectric grease
just
to keep it reliable in the future.
