Tip: Mine is wired with the cigarette lighter.. Since I don't smoke and don't let anyone to smoke in my car I unplugged the lighter and I use the negative of that circuit to complete the circuit for the relay.. If the lighter is not in place the car won't start.. 🤓🤓🤓 By the way I have 2 relays ones cut the fuel pump and the other one cut the ignition to the starter.. So it won't even crank if they figure that there is a wire there.. I still have another one going to the fuel pump so even if they crank it they won't go to far.. 😅

Can we just skip to level 11 real quick? So, there are plenty of biocompatable polymers and manufacturing techniques to produce small flexible circuits. I propose a flat, flexible, sub cm^2 passive LC tank circuit laminated into an impermiable, flexible biopolymer and dermally implanted in a non irritating place in the hand. Then you need to install a solenoid in the car handle which is driven at some lower fraction of the resonant frequency of the implant LC tank and a pick up coil that outputs to a band pass filter wich is tuned to pass only the frequency of the implanted LC but reject the driver coil frequency. That way when you put your hand into the driver coils field, the implanted LC will oscillate as its resonant frequency and this will be picked up in the pickup coil, passed by the tuned band pass and from there, it can be detected by a microcontroller which engages a few relays which enable the fuel pump or anything else you want. This may sound rediculous to some but just watch a few videos on channels like Applied Sience or The Thought Emporium, or Cody's Lab to see what people can accomplish in a garage. The fact that you could custom tailor the system would make it virtually unhackable except through brute force. On the other hand you could just get full coverage.

Ollie Oak I can definitly see your point of view. Although it may not take a genius to figure out how to bypass the switch, it does take work and time (which is critical when stealing a car). This in adition to turning your wheels in a direction that makes it difficult to tow, makes the car less desirable to the thief. As I said in the video, if your car is targeted and sombody really wants it, then consider it gone. Quite frankly, if its stock or a common after market alarm, there will always be a way to steal it. Your also correct about it being a fuse to relays. Thanks for your input! Feel free to follow up! I love to hear opinions. Especially from people who have experience in this.

1. Make sure your wire can handle more than the fuse is rated for. 2. Fuse box is not a good place to run your wires from. In this case, the best solution would be to run it from the fuel pump. 3. Hide the switch somewhere in passenger side. The first place someone would look for a killswitch is under a seat. I would hide it in plain sight, disguised as fog light or window heating switch for example. 4. Use shrink tubes or terminal connectors in all car related electronic works. Vibrations will losen up electrical tape (eventually).

A to thin lead can potentially get to hot while driving a long time in the summer and melt the isolation. There a lot of cars that were burned because off such sketchy work in the electrics. You cant compare it with a speaker wire,because through a speaker wire goes AC!And only a bit of bass which has the most power.But on this goes a DC current and that goes continue in time,compared with the speaker wire.Look at the thickness of the wire inside the fuse!And thats only a very short wire and you are gonna make a longer wire and so with more resistance.And more resistance means more heat..

I did this to the two fuses in the boot of my clk 230 cabrio. 1 was for the rear windows and the other was for the electric roof module the VDO control box. I had to break the circuit in these two only for a couple of seconds every time my cabrio developed an intermitent fault with the roof module. My windows , mirrors , rear head rests and roof would all stop working. The red light on the roof switch would stay on and the only way to fix it was to remove the negative lead of the battery for a couple of seconds and put it back on.This would reset the module and everything worked again. I know this is a crude fix but a new module was a couple of hundred quid. I just ran 2 pairs of wires into the front of the car and. Put a couple of switches, 1 on each pair. I know what your thinking but it works. Saves me keep geting out the car usually at least once every couple of days and down powering the whole car. Specially the ECU.

The fuel pump fuse is a popular place to run a Kill-switch system. A good Car Thief knows this as well. If he is targeting your model car, along with a slim-jim he is gonna have a fuse or 2 with him. He breaks in, car cranks but wont start, he opens the fuse-box, sees the installed wire, pulls it out, pops in a fuse of his own, takes off with your car. Maybe a break locking device would be a safer bet??

FINALLY! an easier way to install a kill switch. Thanks! I don't have a "fuel pump" fuse can I use the "starter relay" fuse?
@cmacia069 жыл бұрын
Definitely! The fuel pump is usually the best choice because people who do steal cars know that the starter is what most people put the switch on. Not only that but the fuel pump is inside the car and is nearly impossible to force start it ie.. give it a current. A starter you can actually make it turn from the outside.. (I wont say exactly how). There are other fuses that do the job too. On some cars they have a fuse called ignition coil or something like that but whatever stop your car from running is all you need! A thief only has a few minutes to start your car and if they don't do it withing that time, they just leave. Thanks for watching!

+Christian Macias Nb With newer cars, even if you force the starter to run, the ECU needs at minimum a signal from the crank angle sensor and/or other sensors to start. Without those signals they can force the starter till the battery is dead and it wont start.

+RMRKV1 that would be true if you want the armature to spin. If you want it to actually turn the engine over there are other things that need to happen my friend.

from experience, make it a hassle & time consuming to a car thief. The longer it takes them to steal your car the faster they will give up, especially when there's a gun pointed at them.

what are the cons of this? since you kill the fuel pump would this damage the pump or any other components such as the computer thinking there is a fault going on or so???
@brettross6375 жыл бұрын
You're over thinking it, if the pump is off/no power how would it damage it..... It can't, the computer doesn't care if there's gas or not it's still going to crank, just like when you're going down a hill with your foot off the gas, theres no fuel going to the engine (in modern cars)

You can also do the starter.I had a few muscle cars and it was easy to hide switches .Plus those old cars are easy to steel and after putting all that work and money into something it would suck to have someone steel it.

awsome. your execution is a little crude . but you are totally right. the idea of anything you can do to slow the crim down ,has a great effect . a long cranking engine draws attentinon . add a steering wheel lock . the crim will cut the steering wheel, remove the lock, and the cranking engine will add up to too much time .i would bet a paycheque , that 90% plus of the crims would move on to other targets. good job.

Why in the world would you screw with fuse? Just split the wire between the fuse and the pump.
@1985flyguy7 жыл бұрын
Atlas WalkedAway bc his modification doesnt permanently damage the vehicle wiring. he can remove the switch and just put a reg. fuse back.

gary hutchison And just how do you permanently damage a wire?
@cmacia067 жыл бұрын
+Atlas WalkedAway should you want to revert, you would need to solder and shrink wrap vs a fuse can just be replaced and its as good as new. Unfortunately it going the same for security... Can be bypassed if you know where to look.

Youre both acting like solder and shrink tube requires a contract with NASA. I happen to be an electronics engineer and my rsx can only be stolen with a flatbed and no witnesses so I do have a perspective on these things. It takes 20 minute to install a perfectly hidden switch with robust connections, but if you want to screw with the fuse box, solder to copper allows, add two more resistive solder joints because you need to add an additional fuse with additional resistive connections, and leave ridiculous wires hanging out of the first place a thief will look once he busts your ignition lock and the car doesn't crank, then be my guest.

Hook the car alarm to the ignition coil. This will give the thief a good jolt when they touch the door handle. Or put explosives in the car that’ll go off 5 seconds after the front doors open. That’ll learn em!
