When working on vehicles it can be very tiring especially when you get old. That fact he takes the time to show the color wires and how to do these types of jobs I really appreciate.

head phone jack... I like that

Thanks Brain I appreciate it. I have a 1984 Olds Cutlass Supreme Brougham it's a 4 door with 33,000 original miles on it my grandfather gave it to I'll definitely put a kill switch on it thanks to you. Love your video's keep them coming!!!

Awesome! Thanks for watching

Boom what a video. Perfect description and step by step.

I remember watching that video, I just couldn't remember if it was yours or someone else's. Guess I got a little lazy and didn't search your channel. Thanks again. You have a long-time subscriber in me... just keep the vids coming, they're very informative and helpful.

Great video as usual! You could add a ground switch to the tach terminal on the coil to kill the spark too. Personally, I'd do the armored cover to the column no matter what else you do so the dirtbags don't get the chance to break the column. My 87 442 almost got stolen once and it was a pain having to pull the column apart to replace the broken pieces, get them painted to match, and all that. Far better to not give them the chance to break the column in the first place in my opinion.

I've used a window contact & magnet from a home alarm system for a kill switch. Wire the contact, mount it behind the dash and place the magnet over the contact to close the circuit. I found using a earth magnet works better due to a thick metal dash.

Cruise control set switch is on or off, basically monetary. If it goes to ground, use it to turn on a relay, completing the crank circuit or HEI power circuit. If using two relays, shuts of both.

I wish I would have known this information before I had my first ss monte carlo stolen thank u for the info so I can keep my new ss

I really like the idea of the guitar jack!

Thanks for the vid, I will def need this info when I finally pick up a Cutlass

I usually never post but Wow! This was exactly what I was looking for!! I'm on the market for an 87/88 Monte SS. I know they go like hot cakes. The amp jack was awesome. I think I'll use that but I'm going to hide the jack somewhere. The magnet idea is good too. I might invest in a detachable steering wheel while I'm at it. Lol. Thanks!!! Great vid!

Thank you for the info on the switch

Very helpful information. Like your ride in the background...sweeeet.

Hey, thanks for the info, buddy!! 😁👍🏻👍🏻

Good tips on the kill switch

i had the same problem on my cutlass...i bought a new motor, new window switch and greased up the window tracks very well and problem was solved!! hope it helps!

Im going to do this as soon as i get my grandmas 1986 cutlass supreme and nice Top Gear shirt man

Thanks man!

You are the man!

Thanks for the suggestion. I see your Cutlass, very nice project.

dope video man i'm definately hookin up my ride

Thanks for this video! I have a '73 Centurion, this helps a lot! :)

There are screws behind caps at the pull strap, screws that hold the arm rest on and once the arm rest is removed there are two large screws behind that. You then pull the lower panel off, its held on with plastic push clips and then remove the upper. The upper is also hooked it at the top of the door. Hope this helps.

Great knowledge shared here

Great video! Do you happen to have a video or any info on relocation the ignition switch to the dash. What would I need to do to have the linkage work

Like the power window idea

some good thoughts there... good video

Great video. I'll definitely be installing one of these in my A-Body. I just bought a 1980 Buick Regal and the passenger side window is stuck halfway down. It rolls down about a quarter of the way down, but won't go all the way down or all the way up. How do I PROPERLY remove the door panel? I just thought I'd ask, I don't want to break the panel and have shit hanging.

Thanks a lot buddy!

I feel your pain, I had my '70 GTO Judge stolen in 1981 and haven't seen it since.

Yep, it sure will!

Make sure the wire harness is attached to the dash before you put it back in and leave the gauge cluster and glove box out of it. Also it is easiest if you have the steering column out.

Thank you..Just ran all the wiring on my 69 Elco restoration. Know exactly which wires to splice. Going with the purple wire, with a hidden kill switch. Just a foot note...went ahead and switched out the original 69 highlight switch and the column directional switch. Had lots of issues with connections. Replace them...they were corroded and worn out... not that expensive and you will have peace of mind ...down the road. Also rebuilt the the fuse box with new fuse connectors...got connectors from NPD.

I can't say if the ignition wire you need to cut is purple but yes it will work if you locate the correct wire.

fuel shut off valves also work nice. good video though

If your running a stock HEI then run the R46SZ gapped at 0.060.

My Dad had a kill switch in his Chevy truck 1979 also he had one installed in my sisters Chevy Chevelle he also had a kill switch in his Suburban 1992

Very relavent to us city dwellers

Thanks! I got it off. Would you happen to know anything about my problem? The widow motor seems to work fine. The window has about four to five inches of normal functionality, but when I reach certain points in the up and down position the window halts and begins to make a loud grinding noise. There is no corrosion, the car is rust-free for the most part. Again, the motor does seem to work. Any suggestions?

Do you have to modify the input jack to complete the circuit (eg. soder the ground tip to the live tip on the input jack itself)? Just curious because if I remember correctly the sleeve is the ground for the input jack and the tip is the live

audiojack! dammit thats brilliant, why didn't i think of that?

Adjust the cable where it clips on to the steering column bowl.

If you have replaced the mechanical fuel pump with an electric unit you can also wire a kill switch to this type of pump. What I would like to know is, can the steering column be disassembled to the point where one could machine a sleeve out of steel pipe and fit it in place of the "pot metal" shroud that shields this linkage? I once owned a 1978 Cutlass Slant Back that was originally fitted with an early GM Diesel engine which blew out. I replaced it with a Rocket 350 out of a '73 olds. Everything bolted up just fine and I kept the diesel starter which made winter starting a breeze. Only problem was that the vehicle was marked Diesel Only at the filler cap and I erased the label. I always pumped regular leaded fuel in it but was always hassled by the attendants saying it was illegal to put leaded fuel in a '78. I explained that it was equipped with a '73 engine which took leaded fuel only and it had no cat underneath.

awesome

Nice vid.. Cool cat :)

can u show me how to make the kill switch of a plug guitar or headphones?

Can what be welded?

Hi classic g-body garage I have a question to ask do you have a lighted vanity mirror wiring harness I need two of them.

so u just cut the ends of the monno plug n connect 2 the purple cable? or u need 2 do some adjustment?

How do u install a kick down cable on a 86 cutlass supreme

i like this video good shit

Do you have to drop the steering column to get to the purple wire

There are tabs where you solder wires onto the mono plug. It is easy.

Hey can you make a video on how to change the side mirrors?

whats up my friend ? I have a quick question for you someone tried to steal my 87 monte carlo ss last week broke the steering colum just like you pointed out in this video But I have a Kill switch so they did not get it. where can I get a new steering colum lower shift colum bowl with tilt The Fake Metal Part You Pointed Out! HELP Thanks!!

question, so the two wires on the kill switch are to hooked up to the two ends of the starter wire that you cut?

how would i wire it to the window switch like you mentioned. would i just cut the purple wire, then tap it into the power window wire, then tape off the cut purple wire sticking off the ignition harness?

@ClassicGBodyGarage

Just splice into the window power wire from the purple wire. Make sure you use the proper gauge wires.

Good morning sir, where can I find the one switch with the guitar plug?

Make sure you have the correct flasher module. They have different ratings and will not work correctly if wrong.

On my 1985 Cutlass Supreme 2 door with 305 chevy engine it came with a 200 c trubo transmission 7.5 rear end what gear ratio and is it limited slip or what

thank you I am going to do this to my 1986 Pontiac grand Prix

Hi I wanted to ask what gauge wire should I use for the guitar jack kill switch?

@ClassicGBodyGarage

Жыл бұрын

Same gauge as the purple wire. I don't recall off hand but match it up.

Its the flasher for the turn signal.

any time.

You will have to use a multi-meter to find out which wire is getting 12 volts when the key is turned.

Gapped at 60 is a good setting. 65 will work too.

Where do you buy a Collin harness lock?
