Steering Lock: cut one wire. /switch optional

bdl99

Thanks, I think I can help... Give me 48hrs to confirm, I already have the plugs I just need to check I can get the sockets.

As others have mentioned minimum order quantities are generally the issue. What sort of demand is there for this? I don't want to make a ton of money here but don't want to be stuck with thousands of connectors either.

Would $50-70 be a reasonable price? I need to confirm the prices and qty of connectors before committing to that. That may seen expensive but the issue is the quantity, if we want 10K I can probably get it down to more like $5

Ok, I have an order already in progress for other connectors so I'm going to add a few samples of the female connector. I'm still aiming for the target prices of $50.

I know it doesn't matter, but what color are the other wires? Does anyone have a photo of the plug showing the wires? I know it is anal but I will make the extension harness with the same colors as the original if I know what color they are.

The suggestion was 8-10in of wire between the plug and socket, with the brown wire there but will probably supply pre-cut. I will offer LMBmikeZ one of the first kits if he wants it because he was the one who contacted me, who else is in on $50 beta units?

I'll buy one.

I'll take one, since I can't find the connectors easily I'll be using it for lock removal bypass experiments. If I get it figured out you can make and sell that one too.

I will do the brown wire (pin 1) cut on Saturday to confirm Fritz's findings.

So is this the scenario if the dummy plug works?

Unlock steering wheel, unplug steering lock connector, put new dummy connector plug with brown pin disabled in between steering lock and current connector.

Steering lock now set permanently unlocked. If so desired, you can return to stock setting by removing dummy plug and reconnecting steering lock with original connector.

Nice and neat, no wires to cut

I'm also in if it works
