can anyone show me a pic of the mounted battery cut off switch i read the scca rule book but i would like to get a picture of how it should look 00 civic si

 

 

that is fine for NASA but IIRC the SCCA requires that it be within so many inches of the window.

 

Good point,and it should be a 4 post switch to cut the alternator off as well.

Here is a 99Si dash

 

thought it had to be on the outside of the car so rescue people could cut power....

 

so is there a wireing diagram so i can get an idea 4 the 4 post

 

messy(sorry) Home written one is how mine is,if you can read it....

 

The cable goes to a latch mounted on the passenger side door bars. So it meets requirements

 

damn didnt know that. Good point

 

you can legally do it using only 2 posts also. After having 2 kill switches go bad on the "small" posts i stopped using them

here is kind of a crappy picture that i will try and illustrate.


I have the battery positive coming to the one big post and the on the other big post i have my alt+, starter+, ignition+,fuse panel+ coming out and going to their respective locations.

If you search around i am pretty sure there are a few 3 plus page threads discussing ways to wire a kill switch.

 

AAA got ya!

It isn't a big deal i have mine mounted in the center of the car too.


SCCA club is weird. It has to be within XX inches from the window, but you don't have to be able to use it strapped in..

SCCA pro requires it to be within XX inches of the window AND you have to be able to use it strapped in...

I don't think NASA has any limitations on the placement of it.

 

Mine's in the back corner of the passenger window, mounted on a gusset on the roll cage (I don't have any pics of it, I'll try to get one this week). I bought a bicycle brake cable and housing, and ran it from the switch to a handle velcro'd next to my parking brake handle. Corner workers can access it quite easily, and I can cut it while strapped in if I feel the need to (hope I never need to).

 

i always thought the switch had to be located at the rear of the car

 

Can you add some more info on how to do the brake cable idea? Im looking to run 1 switch from the center console and one on the side vent next to the window for the corner workers.

 

corect me if im wrong but i thought the thick power wire coming from the alt if touching the fuse box power wire would stay running without a battery if so how could a 2 post work with atl wire and fuse box on the same post
