Has anyone pulled their vacuum system as part of avionics upgrade and found an acceptable way to 'trick' the onboard warning light and the DDMP system from triggering an master caution and exceed? I can pull the light bulbs on the annunciator panel, can cover and placard the vacuum gage with it's red light as well INOP, but the DDMP still comes up with a caution tone every flight which requires you to go through settings to remove the warning each time (first world problems). Unsure the location of the pressure sensor or a way to adapt it to believe the vacuum is in the green, when it's in fact gone. The DDMP would be impossible to adjust software per my A&P. Thanks!

In the photo attached, all is well, it's before the system has been pulled out.
