That's a hell of alot of work for something very much more complicated than a well-hidden kill switch or ghost switch... Not to mention a very shitty diagram.. Who draws relays like that??

But to answer your question, I think it's pretty safe to say that no one around here has a magnetic reed switch as their kill switch...

I saw that diagram on that Australian site ******* 5 years ago. Never figured it out. I still have the DPDT relay and reed switch in my garage.

Start from scratch. Use the reed switch to trigger a latching relay, use the latching relay to control a start kill relay. Use the disappearance of the ignition power to unlatch it. Use the diagrams at http://www.the12volt.com

Alright, I re-did that circuit with three SPDT relays.

"Start Kill" Relay
30 to one side of starter wire
87 to other side of starter wire
86 to ground
85 to 87 of "LED" relay

"LED" Relay
87 to 85 of "Start Kill" relay
87a to flashing LED, other side of LED to ground
85 and 30 to constant 12v
86 to 85 of "Switch" relay

"Switch" Relay
86 to 85 of "LED" Relay
85 and 30 to Normally Open Reed Switch, other side of Reed Switch to ground
87 to Normally Closed Pushbutton, other side of Pushbutton to ground

Yeah, I don't see how the "Switch" relay works, but that's my best understanding of the diagram. I could put numbers on the DPDT, but I don't know what numbers it uses. The thick line at the top is the coil, and the dots from top to bottom are normally open, normally closed, normally open, normally closed. The arrows are commons.
