AFM Actuators Delete

Hello folks. Has anyone tuned out their AFM actuators using HP Tuners? I've been driving around with them zip tied but now want to eliminate them all together. I followed this post https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...hp-tuners.html in a Corvette forum and I think I've followed the instructions correctly.
Below is my CCM table and I have checked all the necessary codes to "No Error Reported" as stated by user Fyreant. Do I also have to set the "AFM Valve Enabled" parameter to "Disabled"? Any help would be much appreciated.

Should be able to set the codes to no error reported and uncheck the box. The set the tab in the CCM for "AFM Valve" to disabled. It's been a while since I did it but I don't recall anything special.

Hello Megahurtz, thanks for replying. All I had to do was clear the codes and I left the "AFM Valve" parameter to "Enabled". Mission accomplished.
Although it was an expensive endeavor @ 3 credits.

I was thinking the same thing. The only reason why it didn't is because there was no mention of it on the tutorial from the Corvette forum. Better to disable it just to be sure.

Probably because if AFM/DOD is disabled in the ECM it will never try to communicate with the CCM to actuate the valves. But it's always best to be thorough.

Thanks for the help folks. I went back in and set the "AFM Valves" to disabled.
