Default Question.. easy ignition disable?

I want to put an ignition disable switch on my C5.

It was an easy solution with the early electronic ignition with a distributor. Interupt the module power circuit.

Is there a comparable place to wire in a switch to shut down the ignition without damaging the computer?

Would a switch that interrupts voltage to your fuel pump relay work?

Yeah that would work as well & probably not have any chance of affecting the computer. I thought about that last night too.

If you have a 6 speed the easiest thing to do is to add another parralel switch to wires that disable the ignition until the clutch is pressed in. Making it you have to push the clutch in and turn on the switch to make it crank. You can always cut of the power to the fuel pump to. I would tell you the color of the wires but i forgot search for kill switch and a thread should come out that tells you which wires to cut.
