Hi Guys,
 
I am installing a FIA KIlls Swict and thought i'd remove the key ignition too as mine is on it's way out.  I will have the Kill switch, an accessory switch and a seperate one for the fuel pump. Here is the instruction sheet for the kill switch

 
Can anyone shed some light as to which wires are which on the back of the inginition switch?  Specifically which one is the accessory wire,  coil wire and which is the ignition wire activated by the key to start the car so i can wire this through the start button.
 

 
Cheers
 
Matt

Hi Matt,
According to my workshop manuals Thick red from  battery
                                                      Black which goes to black/yellow  to coil
                                                      Yellow  acc
                                                      violet/white brake warning light test when in start position
                                                      black/yellow which goes to black/red to starter sol.
I will check a couple of switches I have here to see if they are the same as yours.

Can someone please confirm my drunken fumblings -
 
Black = ground
Yellow = Constant Live
Green w/ blue stripe = Powered ignition
Red w/ blue stripe = Powered when Ignition turned fully on
Red w/ green stripe - not sure but powered when accessory on
Purple w/ white stripe = brake warning light
 
Cheers

That's pretty close.
The Ford wiring schematic I've got says :
 
Green / light blue stripe = Accessories (1st position)
Red / light green stripe  = Ignition (2nd position)
Red / light blue stripe    = Start (3rd position)
Violet / white stripe       = Brake warning light
Black                           = Earth / ground
Yellow                          = Raw battery / constant live
 
Cheers, Jason.

Hi Matt,
Checked the switch I have like yours it's as Jason's post.
The brake warning switches to the ground in start position.

Cheers Mate,
 
I went and saw a mate of mine who's an auto elec and I'll just get him to do it.  I probably could do it but I figure he'll do it in 2 hours where as i'll take a few days and then will inherantly have probs.
 
Cheers
