hi all,

Going about putting a killswitch in my car. Ive been reading up on it and am fairly confident i know how to do it (plus got an wanabe electrician as a friend lol) just took the back seat off today to look at the wiring.

Was hoping someone could tell me if the little green and yellow wire attached to the connector is the power wire to the pump. Would be helpful to know before i do more routing around. two pictures are attached.

thanks

the first pic is an abs wiring
the fuel pump wiring plugs under the metal cover on your second pic.
 
well mate!

had another look around today, took up the carpets to try and find this ground wire on the drivers side but i couldnt locate it. think i found the cables leading from the fuel pump though, just wondering if you know are these definelty the ones? pretty sure the fuel pump power is the green and yellow one.

thanks

The Fuel Pump has only 2 wires. 1 is the positive, the other has to be the negative.
Clean up the fuel pump location.

UPDATE! Fuel pump killswitch is sorted! Very easy to do and makes me feel a lot happier about leaving my car at night!

I recommend everyone puts at least one on your car....30min job that could potentially save you thousands!!

I might get around to doing one alright. Forgot to take pictures of the wiring while i was doing it actually! Got to be careful with these things though as you never know who is looking! Don't want to be telling any potential criminals exactly where to look lol. if you want an explanation i can pm one.

Good point...lol
Could you create one more generic or general? Maybe only drawn illustration instead of a photo to better hide what your setup might be?
