would it be safe to keep my PGM-FI relay unplugged over night? there have been lots of stolen civics in my area lately and im thinkin about different ways to keep my car from being a victim. they are mainly targeting the fixed up ones......wat do yall think?

 

Leave it locked, would be my first choice.

 

cmon man.....im serious as hell. i gotta an alarm but that aint enough now days.

 

im thinkin it would be safe. it would just be a hassle everyday to plug it in and unplug it everyday.

anyone think otherwise?

 

Wouldnt it be possible just to take a fuse out of your ecu box?

 

i take my ecu out
anywhere i go ..where i wont be around my car and if i cant see it.

 

So do you have to let it idle for 15 minutes J Rod?

 

thats true but i was thinkin that the relay would be a lil bit better.....

 

i dont know if i hang on to somin that big if there is another way to discourage the theives.

 

Just be a backpacker

 

hey, what part of ut u in?

 

build an interupt switch to your ecu,
run a wire and a toggle, then you can deter power but you are kinda looking for trouble messing with the electrical system the fuse works in the city, thieves dont mess around to much to figure out why it doesnt start. I have also heard of folks in Camden and Newrk NJ Doing things to the clutch safety switch, but i have no idea what. I did the toggle on my RX7 a few years back so i know it works. Dont do it half *** it,you will pay in the long run. If its that bad by LOJAC!
good luck

 

Shouldn't hurt, but if you lose it or even drop it a couple of times(contacts comming loose) and your out in the boons, then your screwed.
