Default Re: Disconnect switch

Thanks for the responses, the pics are a great help. But, I’m going to hijack my own thread here though. The instructions that came with my switch say not to turn the disconnect switch off before stopping the engine if it’s an alternator equipped vehicle (mine is), due to “possibly causing alternator diode failure.” I’m also installing a safety fuse at the starter. Question: If the fuse blows while the car is running, wouldn’t that have the same affect as turning the disconnect switch off? I’m making my car 12 Volt negative ground with an alternator.
