Paul_13 212 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2009 I bought this the other weekend and do not have a clue how to wire up the white block. The bloke I bought it from said it was to stop the alternator dumping it's charge and frying the electrics. Has any one owned the same switch in the past?

Miles 331 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2009 It's a resistor so takes any current and takes it to the chassis earth, you should of had a wiring diag for it, But think on one of Ed Cheery's posts there is all the info there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dj_mini 7 Posted March 27, 2009 One pair of contacts will make when the switch is off you need to conect one of these to the switched side of the power feed ie the atlernator / starter power conection then the other contact to the resistor then earth the other resistor tail if that makes sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arnold naber 2 Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) I just bought the same one but just dropped it off at the garage... i could take the manual (well piece of paper ) with me tomorrow.. the 2 large ones are for the battery cable ( you probable kwen that ) one is for the resistor -> ground 1 is for the ignition coil one is for 12+ one is for yourcontact key i will post the numbers to morrow Edited March 27, 2009 by arnold naber Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul_13 212 1 Cars Posted March 30, 2009 Chris- lol along as you don't mix them you'll be fine I had a little search earlier but didnt find much... Was hoping A. Naber would be a kind fellow.
