Want a kill-switch put in, how to do it in VL

[evBenji]

As says above how could a put a kill switch in VL

and possibly have the swith inside the car say under the centre console or somewhere

is it difficult?

[detox_nath83]

nope
i have got a switch on my fuel pumps so when ignition is on my pumps dont prime therefore it just cranks and cranks... but not fire

i wired in between ignition signal wire to the relay for the fuel pumps and hid switch in the car(switch is a missile toggle switch with led)

so find something critical which makes the car run and switch inbetween..

another could be coil power. or something else in your fuse box...

[evBenji]

so its just a matter of getting something like...



then cut any wire i please and chuck this in between yeah??

[detox_nath83]

basically man yeah... as long as its a critical running subsystem.... dont knock it when ur driving though.. it will cut off ur engine...

[evBenji]

yeah ur right, prob stash it a little away from general human movement

ive also got a fake LED but it stays on permanently even when car is running

wish i knew how to wire it to a ignition switch? somewhere?

[detox_nath83]

yeah u have wired it to a constant power source thats all

[evBenji]

do u know of a quick wire for to attach too

under the VL dash?

[detox_nath83]

umm i wired my fake Led flasher to ignition. so when car is running its off when ignition is off it flashes.. it was a LED flasher from dicksmith $3

had 3 wires coming off it, Earth, Accessories and constant. i dont know about a normal LED with only earth and power. spose u could wire it in reverse to a relay so when off its connected and once relay is on its Disconnected. understand?

i did mine to the starter motor, so you dont have passengers flicking your nawwwws mid flight in my vl that was. best place aswell

[evBenji]

funny that cos, im aware that if put a wire from starter u can start VL no key needed. I even got immobilzer and the hotwire still starts it grr

so hence need a kill

i personally no wanna be poppin the hood each time, but can see the how it be a good spot

i like the fuel pump idea

[detox_nath83]

nah u just tap in to the wire there and run your new wires and switch inside the cabin. in your reach

[evBenji]

nah i actually mean 'where are these actual wires? Im no good with electrics, am a handy man sure, but general knowledge of ignition wiring im a newbie

where is these accessible wires

right side of steering column?

or under the hood off battery?

or...

[detox_nath83]

depends which approach u wanna take on,,,

it can be done around ignition..
me i did mine from fuse box(engine bay) and ran it through a grommet in firewall and hid it in car.

easy way start ur car.. pull out fuses/relays until u find one which kills the car(One at a time). say fuel pumps relay.... find the signal wire under fuse box to this relay socket and put in a switch so u make a "switched Loop"

[evBenji]

lol tripper, with the kill switch im fine, any wire will take it, kinda funny

but i mean for the FAKE led wires. Where are the actual earth, power, constant wires in a VL, under dash? near steering ?

[detox_nath83]

well OP was kill switch not ur fake LED

and u did not say u were sorted with ur kill switch..

in your ignition. or under the dash cluster the main loom u can tap into a wire there

Step 1: buy an LED.
Step 2: do it the right way and use a test light to find a power source that is hot when ignition on and off.
Step 3: connect + to wire, - to ground.
Step 4: watch it stay on.

It's a VL. No matter how many fake LED's or kill switches you install if the thieves want it it's gone. If they can't start it they will just tow it.
