Here's the situation. I moved my battery to the trunk using a moroso box, and flaming river's big switch. I got everything hooked up and working but i hit the switch and the car dosen't die. I hooked up the positive cable to it.

What else could i hook up to make it work? altenator, fuel pump, igntion?

TIA
Jim

 

Your car is running off the alt. You need to run a wire from the switch and splice into the Bat off the alt. to kill it.

 

I know it running off the alt. but it would OK to run the wire all the way back there and back up front. I wouldn't have any charging problems would I?

 

So you are supposed to run the + to the alternator, and then back to the switch, and then forward to the fuse box?

I have never "tested" mine, but would assume I have the same issue <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

painless part # 50105,


that is what u need, we used it on our shop car and it works great

 

I am in the same situation as Gimp <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

 

It looks like the painless shutdown relay will work, but they want 70 bucks for it. I would really like to find a cheaper way. I'm way over budget on this little project as it is. I think i'll just try wiring the alt into the switch. I'll problably end up frying the alt or something else and end up costing me more money anyway. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

BTW on my racetronix fuel pump there is a seperate wire for power on the harness tried wiring that into the switch. No dice stayed running. <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" />
