Default Yaw sensor please help

So I've been researching about how to mount a switch to fully disable the vdc.
I cut the power wire on the yaw sensor connected it to the switch to test it and it didn't function at all. So i back tracked, took the switch out of situation and hooked the power wire for the yaw sensor back together and nothing.
If anyone can chime in it'd be great.

Military taught me to use the resources available to fix an issue the fastest. Didn't think it'd be that big of an issue.

From what ive heard if you remove the yaw sensor thats what allows you to 100% disable traction control AND ABS.

Does the 03 have a yaw sensor?

Yes it has a yaw sensor, what i did was splice in a switch using the power wire but the switch is acting like it isn't getting power, the vdc and slip lights are on.

The switch is good, i reconnected the power wire and took out the switch and still the vdc and slip lights are still on like the wires aren't connected together.

Same here, that's why I search a lot for information. I know it's been covered many times.

I've read both of those already, and just reread them to make sure i didn't miss anything.
I don't understand why the power wire (orange) is acting as if it isn't getting any power. I've reset the ecu already and no change. Connect the power wire together with no switch with ecu reset, no change.
