Installing the hood pin switch requires drilling a ¼-inch hole in
the metal lip under the hood. Choose a location that will allow
the pin switch to be depressed when the hood is closed.
The pin switch has a connector on the bottom to connect to.
Using a spade connector (included) strip back a ¾-inch section
of the insulation and crimp the connector on to the wire. Pull on
the connector to ensure a good connection.
Place the connector onto the pin switch and run the wire into
the vehicle through a factory rubber grommet. Using a sharp,
pointed object poke a hole into the grommet and attach the wire
to the object with electrical tape. Pull the wire through the
grommet taking extra care to keep the wire away from any
moving parts or anything that will generate extreme heat. Once
the wire is run into the vehicle and secured from any moving
parts, solder the wire to the GRAY wire on the secondary wire
connector and cover the connection with electrical tape.
important! Do not use the vehicle until you confirm the
operation of the hood pin shutdown.
