Re: (junior40er)
I'd love to see an ACTUAL picture of a REAL relay connected to the wires. Also isn't there a better way to do this underneath the dash near the fuse box?

Re: (acmoc)
the best spot ive found to put it is to hide it somewhere in the carpet.(not gonna say where.. that would ruin the hiding spot) but somewhere you wont be able to see it without work.
then i ran a power wire to it through a series of switches, and if the switches are not in the right order, up down down up up, or whatever the combo is, then the fuel pump wont get power.

Re: (Tippyman98)
Back to the relay. Its quite simple. Use spade connectors just like on your switch. Run the fuel pump end of the wire to 30. Crimp the dash side of the fuel pump wire into the same spade connector as a short piece of 18 gauge wire and slip the spae connector on 87. Crimp another spade connector onto the end of that 18 gauge branch and slip that onto 85. Then run another piece of 18 gauge wire from 86 to one of the pins on the switch. Run the other pin on the switch to a ring terminal grounded on a factory bolt or self tapping screw into the bare metal of the chassis.

great writeup!
i am planning on doing this to my Civic, and you make it look so easy!
however, you mention that i have to remove the rear seat to access the fuel pump. ive tried to remove the rear seat before in my civic, but i had no luck
does anyone know how to remove it?
thanks!

there is a 10mm bolt between the seating area and your back area in the middle.. its a little toward the driver side... gotta take that out first..

Re: FAQ: DIY: How-to: Fuel Pump Cut Off Switch
I just want to say ( sorry if i bring back an old thread) why dont you guys use aero latches and take out your coil to dizzy wire? Every car i've owned WILL NEVER run unless im around it. Be smart alarms these days dont do **** otherwise there would never be theft's. No fuel no spark no go, How many thieves do you think carry around a tool box to deal with **** like this. If they cant get in your car in under a minute they give up same goes for getting it started. Just my 2 cents,

Back in 2001, my car was targeted by theives in Seaside Heights, NJ and the $300 alarm i had profesionaly installed was bypased. they got into the car, popped out the lock cylinder for the ign., & tried starting it with a screw driver. It started for 5 seconds (long enough to move it 2 feet out of the parking space), then died.
If i didn't use my switch, i would have been another H-T member posting up another "my crx got stolen" post.
Thats why i posted up what i did.....you just basicly fucked anyone who had a kill switch wired like that. Now when the CRX thats being stolen doesnt start, they'll just rip the cargo box up and look there!
BTW...any idiot can get around an alarm. It's not rocket science
