Anti-Theft Hidden Kill Switch install on car or truck ( cheap and easy ) 

i know im randomly asking but does someone know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.

@Enoch Marco I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Enoch Marco It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my ass !

@Beau Coen you are welcome :)

😎 nice

Yes indeed thieves would perhaps notice the obvious extra wiring emanating from the sides of the fuse box etc & in that case I would have used black wiring or even covered it with heat shrink so the additionally installed wiring looked (not necessarily though) more or less part & parcel of the original vehicle wiring. Having bright red coloured wires which stand out like the proverbial so obviously makes the whole setup look as though something has been added on & for whatever purpose!! Every effort should be made to hide as much as possible of the additional wiring plus ensuring that it looked like factory specs as far as practical otherwise you may as well simply attach a name label to what you have just installed. Overall though an excellent idea & a really low cost vehicle security feature which just requires a couple of minor cosmetic tidy ups!!

Touched a screw with a finger ?

Everyone just says they can swap a fuse. Of course they can. But it’s gonna take some time to do it. Most thieves are looking for a quick in and quick out. Thanks for watching!

Exactly, i was wondering why he had to do all've that work

Try this and install it behind a panel. You will need a strong magnetic like on a keychain so when you start the car, you need to place the magnet next to the reed switch. The only difference with this install for diesel trucks being stolen alot, you need to interrupt the relay of the fuel pump. The reason the relay is its better because one of the wires is the signal, which is low voltage and low amps. you don't have to worry about the wire melting or anything like that. The relay does the job for you with the heavier gauge. In addition, the setup is hidden and there is no switch visible. Its best to put it behind the door panel inside the aluminum framing. Its recessed switch so even better. Also, the fuel pump disconnecting is alot better than messing with the ECM. If the module messes up your talking about thousands. The fuel pump is WAY cheaper... I wish I had a picture of the setup for my friend I did. www.amazon.com/QMseller-Recessed-Security-Contact-Magnetic/dp/B085BS9SSH/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=recessed+magnetic+switch&qid=1630435176&sr=8-3-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFBUVgxSkxUNTlSUkYmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTAyNjI2MTYxNjBNSTgyTEkyVjVHJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA0NTgxMjQ1MVVXVExKMkdUOTImd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl

What? Cut the wire coming from fuse box….so then you wire with no fuse?

Can you make a tutorial of this?

@@5starplumbingservices777 Interesting. At the beginning of his video with the post-it note, He said something about the fuel pump breakers didn't work because there were two and didn't have 30 amp fuse for the third one that would have worked. I wonder if that was the relay one. I'd like to see you do a tutorial or show pics of your work.

So if i have a 2-position on -off switch the inline fuse holder will be on the on side and the wire directly from(hot wire) fuse box with be off side..

Will be*

You could also use a momentary switch that has to be held down while you start. Adds nuance in case they find the button

Haters always gonna hate.😂Thanks for the kind words!

Very good point

Very true. Plus it'll make them think that maybe they were successful for a second, further solidifying to them when it fails to start that it's gotta be something weird going on and give up

Thanks for watching. I appreciate the positive feedback!

A 12v professional won't do this kind of janky job because it's a huge liability issue. 12v shops will disable the start cct so that the vehicle can not suddenly die while doing 80mph on the highway

Push and hold the trak control button. It tuns off both vsc and trak cntrl

How often you do this?

That's a very good point Sir! Also, I'd suggest to use a round on/off rocker switch as it's fairly low profile and hence less visible. Would also need to route the wiring through to the switch of course, along inside the center console, and drill a hole through to accommodate the switch (say a standard 20mm dia hole made with a hole saw). Good idea to run away as soon as you're out of the car too, before they try to start it!😆

Thieves won’t stick around trying to figure out how to start the truck. They’ll move to the next car.

If they were to just cut the red wires they still wouldn’t be able to start the car/truck. They would have to cut, strip, and splice the two wires together.

I think if he would covered the red wire with Plastic black split cable tubes under the hood would have made it a little bit more discrete

Doesn’t matter not all criminals are stupid they care less what color the wires are going into the box they would open the fuse box and it’s obvious to see that that’s not a fuse

If they discover what you've done in the fuse box, they don't actually need a fuse. Just any piece of wire for a temporary jumper and you've already supplied that for them.

also putting some heat protection around those wires and some kind of seal on the fuse box to prevent any liquid or grime from getting up in there would definitely be good ideas

You could definitely do that. It would be great if it was a vehicle that had a fuse in the cab. May be a pain in the butt trying to swap a fuse under the hood every time you want to drive.

@@JordanMoree im not an expert with cars at all but Im just thinking what happens if you park at a random place and just take fuse in your pockets til you get back to car? lol....I mean do thieves walk around with extra fuse?

Swapping a fuse in and out of an active vehicle would be quite a pain. A great idea though, if you need to immobilize a vehicle that's parked for a week or so, while your away on vacation.

@@JordanMoree wouldn't the ecm have to do a relearn everytime you flip the switch? if you added the switch to the ecm ignition?

@@ns5337 it’s just the wires running from the ECM to the engine. Not the entire ECM.

No. Because you have to put the new switch in series with the existing circuit you want to interrupt. That is the reason a fuse tap cannot be used because it has only 1 wire out that is connected to 1 terminal of one fuse and 1 terminal of the other fuse. If it had another wire connected to the other tap circuit terminal the swith would be in series and would work but it doesnt. Thats why you need to solder the prongs to a fuse holder. I tried to explain the best I could, sorry if it might seem a little bit confusing...

I added it to the description😉

ZmanTV your fiesta has the fob also correct. Kill switches are really only necessary for key start vehicles. Modern cars with fobs would take a really tech savvy car jacker to hack in and steal it.

@@JordanMoree lol here they get stolen every day , either through key cloning or through the obd port

@@JordanMoree Or rob you at gunpoint outside said vehicle. Kill switch > fob

I just pull the starter fuse out when im leaving it parked on the street overnight

I sold the truck a few months ago. Never had a single issue.

@@JordanMoree Thanks for the Video !

Nothing…but they have to go through exactly what you just said instead of just getting in and taking it. Takes time to do all of that and they didn’t just watch my video like you and automatically know everything 😉

I don’t have remote start but as long as the switch is turned on remote start should still work. If you have it off your remote start will not work.

@@JordanMoree thanks for the response, I just have a different way of a kill switch with two launching relay and I was needing location like the ECM ignition like you did.

Usually you want the fuse closest to the positive power source. But it could work on either side realistically

That would be correct if they figure that out but if they do at least it was a nuisance for em!

@@JordanMoree i asked because we recently had our 2010 Escalade stolen...they broke the window, popped the hood, disconnected the horn fuse, popped the column, put it neutral to move it out the driveway then drove away (camera unable to see how truck was started). What's odd, is the police happend to stop them only 10 minutes after stealing it. The perpetrator jumped out of our vehcile and into a getaway. But the officer jumped in our vehicle to put it in park to prevent an accident, it was already off. Almost as if the moment the POS jumped out the truck turned off. When I went to the storage lot, both ECMs were disconnected. My question is how is that possible? How can you drive with both ECMs disconnected???

They wouldnt know what was going on and it would be to much of a hassle, they would most likely bounce soon as it failed to start

There not looking under the hood

2014. 2018 should be very similar.

Just wire the switch into the starter relay wire, ground or positive wire.easy to trace the wire.

I just pulled the fuses until I found one the won't let the truck without it.

Tried pulling the fuses he recommended and my truck still turned on.

@@slickrickltz4711 same

Mine did but only if I start if with swith in off position and leave the key in on position as long as I turn the switch on no light

The ground is usually just for an led light on the switch. You can just connect you power to the acc and use it without the light.

I'm guessing the same size
