They need only buy the two connectors, and wire them straight through pin for pin. Except the run a nice long wire on the one that gets the switch. I would pay for something that I could plug in, and unplug when needed leaving the harness totally unmodified. Of course you would have to market it as a "paperweight", because the legal ramifications of bypassing safety devices in your car carries a LOT of liability. _____________________________ I feel a need... a need for SPEED !!

RE: ALL HANDS ON DECK ESP IS DEAD - 11/5/2006 10:19:55 PM    RT 2 NV Posts: 351 Joined: 9/30/2006 From: KENOSHA Status: offline yes very easy. i just put a toggle switch in between the wire. start car up and hit the switch esp and everything will come on dash light showing its off. the only thing is you cant just turn the switch back to get it to clear. you flip the switch back and then have to turn car off and it will be reset when you start car back up. tookk me less then an hour. switch was $4.49 auto zone. put it this way my 4 years old son helped on the install. well he likes to help on every install. intake, exhaust ect. _____________________________ CHARGER TOP BANANA 1703-4000 ENGINE MODS MAGNA FLOW EXHAUST MOPAR CAI JET CHIP AIRAID TBS 180 STAT ESP DISABLER REMOTE START BODY MODS SMOKED ROCKBLOCKERS SPEARS REMOVED 20% TINT HYPER BLUE LIGHTS VENT VISOR (in reply to baldyloxs) Post #: 19

RE: ALL HANDS ON DECK ESP IS DEAD - 11/5/2006 11:49:57 PM    RT 2 NV Posts: 351 Joined: 9/30/2006 From: KENOSHA Status: offline i solder my wires. i own a home alarm installtion company and we solder everything. makes for a better connection. but to each there own. easier to hide too with the tape. i just took it out when my wife got home and man it is crazy. i wasnt ready for it and i almost lost it leaving a turn. it feels like it has better pull of the line. you can get the tires to bite better and pull right from the line. all around wirth it. but be ready for it and i wont daily drive with it on!!!! < Message edited by jcivicsi00 -- 11/6/2006 12:28:40 AM > _____________________________ CHARGER TOP BANANA 1703-4000 ENGINE MODS MAGNA FLOW EXHAUST MOPAR CAI JET CHIP AIRAID TBS 180 STAT ESP DISABLER REMOTE START BODY MODS SMOKED ROCKBLOCKERS SPEARS REMOVED 20% TINT HYPER BLUE LIGHTS VENT VISOR (in reply to baldyloxs) Post #: 21

I've gone through and edited your original instructions, and layed it all out in numbered steps. Seems pretty simple and I hope the rubber mats will become obvious once it get started. Basically, we're just putting a switch in that one wire to either complete its circuit, or break that circuit, right? I'm thinking that I will see if I can put the switch inside the consol arm rest in one of the coin holder slots. dave _____________________________ (in reply to baldyloxs) Post #: 29
