Default Re: Car Stopped Running

You may want to do this; Make a small 90 degree angle bracket with 3 holes; one for the toggle switch and two for the existing terminal box mounting screws that hold the bracket. Install the switch and "SPADE" fuse in series with your heavy yellow battery wire up through the terminal box. You'll need only some terminal clips, spade fuse pigtail and a simple SPST switch, all found at local auto parts store. Note, this gizmo does NOT kill power to the starter, but car will not start, no horn, lights, etc.. unless switch is thrown to "ON". This photo is shown from inside cab, at rear of terminal box, the spade fuse with rubber covering and switch in off position. These fuses are commonly found at most stores these days whereas the glass "Littlefuse" 's are disappearing from shelves.
