push button ignition
yes i just keep coming with the questions!
I am putting in a push button ignition and wanted to know if anybody else has ever done this. I am MECP certified and have years of experience with this kind of stuff, but i have never done any actual work on this car. I can/will fiqure it out, but wondered if any of you guys had any ideas.
I am not worried about the actual push button start, my concern is with the ACC wiring. I want to eliminate the key switch all together and route it all to a single toggle switch. I know i can do it, i just dont know the amperage. can a single 30 amp relay and 30 amp switch do it? or do i need dual realys and dual switches?

keys
ok, thanks. ya it wont be hard. I too said whats the point when i had to do it to customers cars...because you still had to put the keys in and turn the ignition on. With that said, i am doing it because my ignition is totally jacked up and the car can be started with any object that resembles a key. So, i will hide the ACC toggle switch and have the nifty "angle eyes" push button start..lol. I will hardly ever use it though because i put in an alarm w/remote start anyway.

I have been considerin doing it. Get a IGNITED DIN panel with the puch button hole already drilled. Move the factory cigerette lighter there. And get the NISMO ON/OFF switch lookin lighter to go in it. Then hide the started button where the cigerette lighter was.

eh, I say leave starter/ignition in plain sight and use a cutout switch for the fuel pump... that way if someone disables your security system, bypasses starter kill, and drives off they will only get a little ways down the road before it dies on em

I tried wiring up a started kill switch a few weeks ago but I m assuming that this setup just completes a ground circuit when the relay closes. I wired in the toggle switch with an indicator lamp that had a seperate grounding point. When the car sent the signal for the relay the light would turn off. But as soon as the car stopped sending a signal for the fuel pump. The indicator came back on and the fuel pump started back up and my car ran ritch. I thik it was grounding itself out.
