HELP! 6 pole kill switch negative set up ????
I bought a 6 pole kill switch from Rennline and would like to do a negative set up. I cant find anything in the forum on how this is done. Does anyone know how to do this? Is there a way to come off the fuse box for the ignition to coil switch. A pitcure is worth a 1000 words. Thanks

Porsche cup cars use the negative side for the kill. Its safer to disconnect the negative terminals and easier to install. The guys at Rennline do it this way too.

No, it is not safer. You should not kill power by breaking the ground connection. The link I posted has the correct and proper information.
There is a reason you can't find a way to do it the way you want to do it....... Scott |

These switches, manufactured by Autolec, have been around for decades and used on most of the competition cars in the UK. I have never seen them wired to the negative side of the battery for what I think are obvious reasons. They are now being superceded by a range of electronic push button devices due to a basic unreliability. In my experience they fails after a few years use but if you can avoid running the full load/current from the battery to the starter through the master switch itself as the high current flowing when you crank the the engine the main contacts will have a longer life. |
Chris,
The 6-pole kill switches manufactured by Rudolf Brüggemann Fahrzeugelektrik in Germany don't seem to have the same issues as those made by Autolec. http://www.rbfe.de/en/produkte/batterietrennschalter/100a-500a/ Scott |

terminal on each cut end. Install one end on one of the "Z" contacts and the other end on the other "Z" contact." Where exactly is that main power wire/ where best to cut? Thanks! |
