Just a simple pin-lift + jumper wire. And it could be left in place permanently.

I think I'll "kill" another temperature sensor here and try that mod on it..


Or not. The current fix is simple enough for me.

Hijack v486 is now released, with the source code for the above fix included (but not compiled-in by default), so that I don't lose track of it here!
