The only way to disable the solar sync function is to disconnect both wires. This disables both the solar sync and the rain sensor. You cannot disable the solar sync without disabling the rain sensor as well. The solar sync function is worthless and it takes control of your watering times, which is not acceptable. That is why I disconnected both wires.
