Safety Shutdown Wires
With all ignition wires properly connected, find the appropriate
safety shutdown wires. These are the brake wire and hood pin
wires.
First locate the factory brake wire using your multimeter. Find the
switch at the top of the metal arm coming off the brake pedal. Use
your vehicle specific wiring information to determine the color of
this wire. With the black lead of your multimeter still in the kick
panel, probe the suspected wire with the red lead of your multi-
meter. With the brake pedal at rest the multimeter should read 0
volts. While watching the multimeter, depress the brake pedal.
The multimeter should read 12 volts. Once you have located the
correct brake wire, solder the small ORANGE wire in the 6-pin
harness to it and wrap the connection with electrical tape.
Installing the hood pin switch requires drilling a hole in a metal
lip under the hood. Choose a location that will allow the pin
switch to be completely depressed when the hood is closed. The
pin switch has a spade connector on the bottom for the wire
connection.
Crimp your spade connector to the hood pin wire and run the wire
into the vehicle's passenger compartment through a factory rubber
grommet (at the same time you might want to run Tachometer
Input wire and Horn output wire from Optional Harness through
the fire wall as you may need to connect them using the following
steps).
WARNING! Do not use the vehicle until you
confirm the operation of the brake shutdown.
WARNING! These wires are meant to protect the
vehicle and anyone near the vehicle. They MUST
be connected to prevent damage to the vehicle
and possible bodily injury.
