DIY - Anti-Car Theft

[wezz_zzew]

Pwede kaya gawin to sa auto? Meron separate na switch para sa positive terminal ng battery connected sa ignition para just in case meron magplano na nakawin auto mo, hindi magsstart dahil walang kuryente. However, para naman dun sa alarm, meron dedicated na line papunta battery. Just askin.

EDIT: syempre dapat ikaw lang nakakaalam kung saan located ung switch na to.

PWede yan, provided na ignition posititive to starter solenoid ang lalagyan mo ng switch, hindi ang main positive battery wire, matutunaw yan.


What i do to all my car is have a secret and easily accesible switch to fuel pump cut off, patayin mo yon, mamamatay kagad ang engine.

yan ang ginawa ni erpats ko dati sa high side double cab pick up nya, parang may main switch ng meralco, nilagay nya sa ilalim ng glove compartment, hindi ko alam pano yung linya e, tagal na kasi

One way na naisip ko is magkabit ka ng separate na busina with tone/sound like a car alarm tapos kabit mo sa linya ng brake light. syempre may switch tapos naka activate lang cia always then patayin mo lang pag ikaw na gagamit. In that way, nag-aalarm ung car kada brake nung thief. Makakakuha ng atensyon sa mga tao at maiilang ung nakasakay.

Ung busina ikakabit mo sa ilalim ng car, ung hard to reach area galing ng idea mo Sir.

what is the make model and year of your chariot. maybe we can give you the wiring diagram for the starting system and a way to disable the engine. disabling just the ignition allows them to drain your battery by failed attempts to start it and gives them the chance to steal it later since your car is immobilized because of a dead battery and inconvenience yourself because now you have a dead battery

Instead of the ignition wire, it would be better if you have a switch to cut off power to the electric fuel pump which would disable the car.

Mas maganda kc ung hindi na talaga mai-start ng thief ung auto. Kaya naisip ko kung pwede may hidden dedicated switch from and to battery.

Just have a switch that would disconnect power to the electric fuel pump. That will prevent the car from starting (engine will crank over but not start). It would leave all other systems to operate normally.

Engine will crank over but not start. Why still give the thief a little hope. Why not totally cut the power and let them know that it does not have a chance to start kc walang power. IMO lang po.

And do you know how big a current you will need to connect/disconnect so the battery can be "switched"?

And it does not bother you that you have to re-program the car stereo everytime you get in the car?

pwede naman yung quick release steering wheel system used in some racing cars.

Talking about this option, wouldn't it be more economical and easier to just use those pedal to steering wheel locks? Are they reliable? Is there a way for car thieves to defeat this? I have one and original Solex sya and seems sturdy enough.

dun sa '77 corolla namin dati, naglagay father ko ng switch para dun sa solenoid, parang ino-off yung supply ng fuel.

In my B13 Sentra, I also had a cut off switch for the electric fuel pump. Effective enough to prevent the car being stolen but does not prevent stuff inside from beign stolen.

magkano installation cost nung DIY switch?

toggle switch - 50php
wire - hanap ng disabled appliance sa bahay

hanap ng area pwede itago. pinaka-ok yung fuel pump, madali itago.

Okay sir, ang mura lang pala. But everytime you get off the car you should remember to turn off the toggle switch.

[blacksun25]

my dad had this done dune sa kotse nya. yung mismo power window switch sa driver window ang ginamit na toggle switch. di ko alam kung saan nya pinagawa but it's working as intended naman.

[Retz]

Nka parallel sa power window switch ang toggle switch sir?

Di ko sure pano ginawa nung electrician. pero before you can start the car, you have to press the power window switch (as if you're closing it) and then turn the key.

pwede, yung main fuse sa fuse box. pero hassle kasi kailangan buksan hood every time. yung ginawa ko dati, kinuha ko power switch ng lumang radio. tadyak sa kick panel on off. hehe.
