Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts
all you guys the schematics are free,
1: public library card in hand (huge prop. taxes , huh)
2: Go online, your loc. or region Pub.lib. (google or call them)
3: log in using bar code on back.
4: click E-sources, then Auto Repair.

mine, has, Chiltions, Mitchells, and Alldata.
yours will have 1 or all 3. i bet.

so why guess?
the metro is in the base of the dizzy and i got him that schematic in under 5min.

2 switches in series not big deal, do it.

one toggle (antitheft) other kill mom. open.

one newer cars the cam sensor is well on the end of the cam , where else.?
some have 3 wires other many .
3 wires, power , ground and output.
others have more outputs, (like I said, lots and lots of ignition designs)
look on Megasquirt.com and read , about ignitions schemes. vast ........


turning the key on 2 times a day is nothing.
doing it 100 times , and down every freakn hill , is another.
you are surging everything on the output of the switch, not a good idea with any electronics. Even Hot swap serial Scsi drives in servers say, only do it when needed.
they have special surge suppressors and have a short life time ,too boot.

even that poor main relay gets beat to death (arcs too , every time you move it)

if you need help with wire colors on other cars , holler. i can dig up cam sensors on any car.

break a leg.
