on my dragon I just unhooked them at the plug not sure if you can do it on the pro may be worth a try

You can not simply unhook the switch at the plug. You have to pull the back of the throttle block apart. Inside there will be a small black compartment. Inside this there will be a set of curved contacts, a resistor, and a spring. The small button behind the flipper gets pushed when the throttle closes which in turn pushes or slides the resistor. You have to remove the resistor and spring. Then put everything back together. If you do not tape this up under the hood somewhere, you should fill the compartment with dielectric grease so moisture cannot get inside this compartment and play havoc with your system. I did this to mine right away troubleshooting and have ran it for ~800 miles like this with no codes or issues.
PS I would highly recommend a tether(not just ones with the tss removed) on all pros as the throttle has froze open on mine several times.

This! I was coming back late at the end of the season last year when everything was crusting over bad as temps were rapidly dropping and my throttle froze up WOT on the whooped out trail back off the mtn. TSS saved my bacon (and my sled) as I was about to bail before a bark sandwich. A tether would have protected me but not the sled. TSS reacts way faster and any inclination of removing it went out the window that evening!
Have FUN!

Sorry fellows, wild goose chase. Young-timers was working in full force. I pulled mine apart to see as the posts above were saying removing the resistor does not work... Well, you have to tape the switch in not remove the resistor.
SO pull the throttle block apart, tape the switch in and put back together taped in so that the switch is always seeing the throttle closed. The ecu needs to see that the switch is pressed in (normally pressed via the flipper) and current going through the resistor.

Fastrax has instructions for what to do with the TSS when using their throttle block!!
Excuse my ignorance but why would anyone want to disable the safety switch
