    Not something done with HP Tuners.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    The BCM is requesting ABS/Trac light on because the ABS module has been removed and is no longer able to send messages to the BCM, and HP Tuners does not read or write anything inside either of those modules. It's powertrain-only.

    Swatch of electrical tape?

    There were rumors back in the day that the used car lot guys would turn out warning lights using a red-hot scribe, melted through the face of the cluster to poke the bulb out. Though I never saw evidence of that having happened myself.
