bum msd window switch?
i hooked up my msd window switch white wire to #10 pin on the ecm and it doesn't work.i have power and ground on the switch working but it won't activate at the pill rpm (3200). when i bypass the switch everything works fine . the switch was modified at msd w/the 2 looped wires for an 02 corvette. any suggestions? or should i just use another brand switch? i bought a brand new nx kit from tbyrne (not blaming him as he is just the retailer)and so far the fuel solenoid leaked(bad weld on the tower),the electric bottle pressure switch for the blanket warmer is leaking nitrous and the msd window switch doesn't work ,which i waited for 6 weeks while it was modified for the corvette.and i haven't even used it yet!

How the heck was it modified for a C5 and it took 6 weeks! Just cut the two loops on a regular one and they work perfect!!!
The window switch does not supply power, it supplies a ground. Make sure that is how you have it wired up. Intuitively, you would figure it would be power, but it won't work that way.
Good luck,

thanks for your reply.i double checked the wire to power and ground ,white to white for tach,and yellow to fpss and all are correct.my msd switch has a sticker on it (special modified for 5v square wave ) and the small red and blue wire loops are not cut .could they have sent the wrong switch? msd tech line is closed till monday so i can't get info from them.
