I want to add a hidden remote starter button. Can I tap into the yellow wire under the passenger seat (used to have the interlock - but all that is bypassed)?
Switch tied to yellow wire and a switched hot? It will still require a key to switch to "ON" position - but I know the keyswitch will fail on me in the middle of the Mojave or someplace similar. Thanks in advance! |

If you install the Ford relay there should be no need for a separate switch,I had one in a Kombi that I bought because the PO couldn't fit a new switch it was a PITA.
My understanding is by fitting a relay you are removing load from the switch and it merely becomes a device to activate the starter,Mark Henry mentioned less switch issues,makes sense. Its not only the plastic that go's on the switch ,the contacts for the start (cranking)function get worn and burnt ,at least one switch problem is gone with the relay. |
