My Accord wagon was recently recovered after being stolen, they had hotwired the car and it was still running when we found it. How can I turn the car off with the key pinion missing? the wires are just hanging loose. Thankyou for your time.

 

disconnect the battery?

what he said

that or go moderately fast down a hill in reverse and then put it into first and BAM the engine will stop.

and then reconnect when you want to go some where....

 

best thing i can tell you is pull the fuse for the fuel pump it should be located under the dash. It's not good for the ECM if you just disconnect the battery!! putting the trans in reverse down a hill will definitely ruin it

actually, to my knowledge, i dont think you can put it into reverse while going forward....the synchro/collar gear wont let you, and all youll do is **** up your synchro/collar gear

 

well... i was actually talking about coasting downhill backwards in reverse THEN slammin it into 1st... as ur still goin backwards...down the hill...

 

If you disconnect the battery the car is still going to run off the alternator you retards.

Two wires are probably twisted together under the dash (Red and Yellow, or a Yellow and White) , simply undo the twist and the car will shut off.

oh.....gotcha....

and yea...disconnecting the battery wont do ****

 

if the battery wont work, do the fuel pump thing, either pull the fuse, or just cut the wire... i think it should run aside your doorsill on the drivers side.

 

just pull the center wire that goes to your dizzy cap.
