Z3MCJez Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Does anyone know where I can buy a duplicate connector for the inertia switch? I've decided that I don't want to move the switch inside the car, but for racing, I don't want to run the risk of it cutting out. What I want to do, is have an alternative connector, which I will simply loop a wire around, to effectively short the inertia switch. But I can't find where to get it from ...

Stationary M25 Traveller Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Wouldn't you rather it cut the supply to the fuel pump if you crashed when racing ???? 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h_____ Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Disconnect it! No use for racing, far more dangerous when it trips over kerbs than the fire risk. Rely on your plumbed in fire ex. for a fire. Having been in a race and have it trip with 20 cars right behind me, even though I could turn it back on, the sudden pause, when people werent expecting it behind, caused chaos.

Z3MCJez Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'm going to disconnect it (effectively) by using the replacement connector to short-circuit it. (There will be a short wire loop around the back of the connector) I use my car (a little) on the road too, and I'd like to keep the protection in case of a proper shunt on the road. I've already bought in to the additional risk of having it cut off with 20 cars around me, but don't want to simply cut it out. I could tie wrap, I guess, but would that really stop it cutting out?

Alex Wong1697456877 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I removed mine completely and put a switch across it which acts as a fuel pump switch for when I'm working on the car. ----- VDU 7X Pics More VDU 7X Pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
