Yes you can hotwire it but be careful, you don't want to fry anything if you do it wrong. That being said.....

Jumper the Red and Orange wire together
Jumper the Orange/Yellow Tracer and Black with White Tracer together
Jumper the Gray and Brown wire together.

Thanks for posting the video wacio. I found it very informative for future reference. My brain works such that if I see how something is done, I can do the work with a lot of confidence vs. reading a how to manual.
