Looks like a disabler wired in to the ignition switch,looks like an aftermarket theft device circuit

Thats a great video, what the hell was that.

Dealers put them in

I thought it might be a module for a court ordered breathalyzer. I've been having trouble with my 07. At first all I had to do was wait and it would eventually work. But the wait kept getting longer and longer. I found this video while waiting, took out the plug, blew on it and presto instantly started. Crazy.

A car dealer had something similar installed in a vehicle that I had in the late 90's.

Put on a new starter , alternator and then saw this video .

That is a starter interrupt. Usually put in by the car dealership in case you miss the payments they shut it down. It also has a tracking device in it.

Note to self... ask previous owner if he installed a janky anti theft system...

Hell yea i ride sled and atv to vergas all year long...i live in fargo/lake eunice

The dealer put that on as a anti theft key. they try and sell you it. if you dont buy it,,, they just leave the key in and forget about it.

You are superman. 👍

I am having that same problem but I have a 2013 ram 1500 SLT 5.7 hemi

Go pig!

I think many of these are put in by the dealer. My 2003 dodge ram was brand new 13 miles when I bought it I asked for the alarm package and it looks like somebody put it in at home and the parts are made from China. I have an 02 dodge ram that we bought used that has different parts, but basically the same thing . I think the dealers just pay somebody to put this crap in . You think there’d be OEM wiring harness that can be directly hooked in from the factory, but I guess that would be too easy

I removed mine when I first got my truck back in 2012 because I work for big o tires and these was common problems for dodge

You save my life man thank you I found the “power plug” cleaned it out and put it back In and it turned right up thank you mannn

Are you sure that truck didn't have a blow and go interlock at one time?

Nice........

I am from the future, this is how the machines start to take over 😂😮😢

I have no idea what that dam plus is or why someone would install it

It's a GPS with starter interrupter used lots that buy here pay here use them to retrieve cars that are past due

Looks home installed! ....

Great video.....

WTH...damn..does a 1996 have these i wonder?

KILLSWITCH ENGAGE

I am having a similar issue with my 1998 Dodge 5.2 conversion van except, when I turn the key, I can hear a click down in the doghouse area. (starter solenoid maybe?) I pulled off my dash and discovered that I have an after market DEI security system installed. I looked up the model number and downloaded the user's manual for it and discovered that it also comes with a starter disconnect option for anti-theft. I did not get a key fob with the van when I bought it and had no idea it had any of this in there. I have that same yellow wire as you have coming from the ignition switch and it has been split and goes into a relay that I am guessing is the starter disconnect relay. I am going to jump the relay and see if it starts. If not, I will test the starter to see if it is getting a signal from the ignition switch or not. Thanks for posting this video as, my service manual wiring diagram shows a brown and yellow wire coming from the ignition switch which I do not have, but I do have that exact same yellow wire as you show in your video and wires from the security system box go into 3 relays of which one is the one that attaches to the split yellow wire.

Anyone else have a cell no start issue with this?

I have that but the insert is missing. I’m taking it all apart now with the same problem. Thank you for the video

This sure as hell helped me, I tested starter, ignition, installed a new/used TIPM and was at a loss. My '05 ram has an aftermarket alarm/theft system, messed with the connector and fired right up. Hope thats all it was!

But you figured it out yourself!! Strong work

My 4.7 same issue. Just happens to be coldest day of the season. So saw this video. Reached under dash and a contraption fell out. Wiggled it truck started. It looks nothing like yours. Some kind of override maybe? Thanks.

I was driving 70 miles an hour and notheing and mine just costed to the side of the road. After 5000 dollors of work. And the key comes on nothing from starter. Thank you. Yes I'm still looking. Darn thing 30 thousand and still a paper weight. Lol

It’s an aftermarket kill switch. Eliminate that plug and reconnect the yellow wire and never look back lol. Thanks for the vid 👍🏽

very nice, check mine out

What did you say ??? Plug that ??? in !!! Go wash your mouth out!!

Aftermarket security connection for disabling your car/truck. My ford came with one, and I never gave it much thought. I just leave stuff alone that works, but I think I'm going to rewire it back to original to reduce the chance of this happening.

He's not angry . He's sad and want something

Dangg we have the same bumpers

Ayyy new GT day, I’m getting mine back soon bc it had problems. I’ve put 1000 miles on it already and I hope you love it

Thank you

It is a kill switch for the starter. I had to pull one off of a 1994 VW Jetta I purchased years ago because it stopped working all together. I didn't think they still made those. :)

Thanks a million bro

Yep say ya get it from a car lot.they use that to track ya in case ya don't pay and they can find where you're at so they can repo it back and sometimes they come loose to cause ya to not be able to start ur truck

Upvoted for "shove that bitch all the way in there"

yesterday my truck did the exact same thing.only difference my 2006 ram where it shows what gear u are in lite up every gear. like when u put it in drive the d lights up,all mine had the lite up square around them. but did the same exact thing wld no crank. I didn't know what to do. I rolled it to try to fix a stuck starter. I took off the battery terminal for a sec then put it back on. it started and is ok for now. bur was trying to look up and see what cld have caused it. I'm glad I seen ur video bc I expect I be dealing with this again. thank you

Amen amen

What grip tape is on your pint? Looks awesome.

yes its an old school aftermarket Anti-Theft device I just picked up a Ford explorer gentleman made me aware of that device as I purchased the vehicle because he had the same issue that you are having or had bumped it with his knee couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start

maybe the previous owner did not want his his ol'lady driving his truck around when he was out of town
