other way around. remove rp17 and you're done.

^^^^ depending on the version of board, leaving the resistor in RP18 may cause issues. (certain scenarios may cause the ECU to attempt to pull up that line, the resistor allows it to pull up slightly and will cause problems.)
Adding a jumper to RP18 fixes this.

remove RP17, jumper RP18.
the jumper can be the leg from a resistor, so it costs nothing. and you're sure you will never have any problems.

good call. yes, while you're at it, jump rp18 as well.
