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.
