See, now that sounds clever. Though I wonder whether the PCM is that "stupid." If it "thinks" it is feeding the TCC power one would think that it would "know" that the load characteristics didn't change after doing it. Does anyone know whether it monitors that?
It seems to me that you'd actually have to splice into the pink wire and run a new connection to brown with the bulb in between. If you just kill the pink altogether you also loose the shift solenoids. (If it wasn't wired that way you could just pull the TCC fuse - at least on my Silhouette. The problem is that this cuts power to TCC and both shift solenoids. So the pink has to keep feeding the case, but you'd have to tap into it to provide the completed circuit for the brown.
In my case I'm not sure I'm willing to mess with it in just this way. But I'd be happy to hear if you give it a whirl.
