[*uwishn*]

hey,
how do you bridge a inhibitor switch?? (reason being is i'm putting a manual box in and keeping the auto computer and wiring, was told this is fine)
i have looked through the forms and could not find anything on the how to,
i no its probably easy though my knowledge is not too good lol.

Theres a couple of wires you have to bridge under the radio surround ( about 6inches in front of the shifter).
Though, I can't remember which ones - I'll see if I can find a link.

Usually two Purple wires on most GM cars of all models but could be wrong.

ok and how do you bridge them earth them out or something??

Just join them together but its not a good thing as it will start in gear and you might have a very nasty uccident.
Hey I saw a guy get run over at the drags because his auto car had no inhibitor and it started in gear and ran the guy in front of him over, it wasnt a nice site. I wouldnt do it as a permanent thing but more of a way to check if the inhibitor is working even though you could do that with a test light.

Yep I did the first time 9 days ago, but I didnt the second time I replied , I thought my first answer was simple enough as the guy above me said to bridge them but he didnt know which ones, and I didnt bother reading it again, just started typing

Easy to do just find the two purple wires they will go in the inhibitor side by side and then just get a bit of wire about 50mm long with two male terminals and plug them straight in the female terminals on the inhibitor switch.
