2011 Grand Sport - I'd like to wire a low amp switch into the fuel pump relay. Where can I find the relay wire ?

 

Not to point you off topic and away from your original plan, but have you thought about a Ravelco?

I've had one installed on my truck for years and love the ease of use and security it provides.

 

Thanks....I was unaware....sounds great for $500.

 

Wasting your time, Hence without the fob in the car, it's not going to start to begin with.

So if someone is going to steal a vet, then they way they do it is to back up a flat bed, and tow the car away instead. And trust me, you hear cars being towed away with the alarm blaring on them all the time, so don't think that a extra alarm system is going to deter someone from towing it off to steal it.

So really, short of a low jack, and realizing that the car is being stolen before they get a chance to disable the low jack and strip it, then just make sure that you have full coverage on the Vet to buy you a new one if it is stolen.

FYI, if a car is older then 10 years old, it can be registered in Mex with a clean title: even if it was just stolen from the states a few days ago. Hence most newer Vets that are stolen, are done so not to just strip parts like in the states from some low life, but to shove them in a container to ship them abroad to be resold there to make large bank on them instead.

 

I normally don't link other threads to a thread, but for simplicity sake you can click the below hyperlink to a thread a few years back about Ravelco... they receive a surprise same day registered guest defending the product. https://honda-tech.com/forums/audio-...2069021/page2/


Yes it is not a corvette forum but thats not the point. Not that is a bad thing, OR Ravelco doesn't work.it works but.. . One person explains they were able work around the device to steal the car in under 30min w/o destroying anything. (If he was to rip the interior apart I'm sure it could be done in way less time.) Also I hate it when company's claim crazy stuff like "3 million sold, 0 stolen" - "uncuttable reinforced steel braided cable" okay..... sure. W/e, I wasn't born yesterday.

IMHO if you can do it yourself save all that money and make your own kill switches... make them separate. Ignition, fuel injectors, fuel pump, starter kill etc. Those aren't full proof at all either but... like $30 and some time to do all that. Get a silent alarm with tracking/lift detection/phone notification etc... still won't stop them. Layers of protection is the key word. The more you have the longer it takes to steal the car and the better your chances are of catching them or them getting caught. For the cost of one item you can protect your car with more stuff that is going take longer to bypass. All your doing is making them work harder longer.

just my 2 cents.

 

There are TONS of crooks that can compromise the ECM and steal vehicles with soft/hardware.... There getting smarter and smarter

 

 

another good point. Thank you

 

using a blown pump fuse or relay seems easy & cheap!!!!!

 

you can buy a NPP in a box remote setup.... then wire it to the fuel pump fuse instead of the NPP fuse. hit the remote, car wont start.

 

At the end of the day, if a thief wants your car, he will get your car, one way or another.
I've heard of thieves jacking up a car, putting the rolling wheel stands underneath, and just towing it away...

 

Theft protection.

 

wire going to fuse is very visible......rather place dummy f.i.mini fuses
