Default Messed with Yaw/G Sensor

okay so i tried doing the VDC Switch delete on my 2004 Daytona Blue 350z. So basicly what i did was i cut the orange wire that goes to the Boshc unit when i did that my VDC Light and slip ligh came on like it was supposed to... i then later said i didnt want to do that mod no more so i blacked taped the wire together and even thoe i turn on and off my car the lights wont go off not even if i hot the VDC Button... So now ive been driving with no traction and my question is do u think i wll need a new yaw sensor? or am i doing something wrong?

I think the first thing you did wrong was try to remove the VDC switch for no reason.

Try disconnecting the battery and waiting a half an hour and see if it resets.

good times.... i would not electrical tape it, but instead use a butt connector to attach it back.. you might need to reset the ecu

butt connector FTW!

As the others have said reset the ecu after you reconnect the wire and you should be good.

lol thank you guys for all of your opinions of knowledge ive tried disconnecting the batter for 30 minutes even a day and i still have those same lights on and used the crimp connector but there is no use. how would i reset the ECU for that cause i know theres specific ways to reset the ecu for different things such as the throttle body etc...
