Question


story goes got vit > modded (still modding)

the vit was (is) 1.6l efi 4spd auto (3 & overdrive)

I have removed the vit transfer and fitted a Hilux transfer in its place ....

So I have to rewire the 4wd light switch .....and run the o/d wires that used to go to the stock shifta to a stand alone switch as Im now running a B&M shifta ...(no worries here )

Now the Vit has a second switch normally on the transfer which turns on the L (LOW range) light on the dash and apparently tells the puter for the auto to turn the overdrive funtion off in low ....I was going to run this to another switch ....but have thought why dont I splice it into the 4wd light switch so that when its in 4wd it turns the overdrive funtion off ( not that I will ever need the overdrive as it wont see the tar but I may aswell wire it in anyway

So question is will this do weird things to the puter with in any aspect ,due the wires being spliced and maybe voltage drops or somthing or will it damage the computer full stop

Or will it wrk with no worries


any info appreciated

two wires on each switch .....earth n switching wire ? .....dont go and confuse me ....

[Oscars]

if they both switch earth when engaged i dont see why not.

well despite waiting for a definate answer I went ahead n wired it up as per what I stated above .....and with a half shagged battery thats been sitting idle for about 8-10 months ....it all seemed to wrk but I will have a chat 2morra with an auto elec and see what there thoughts are ...



thanks dude
