Message	of the cut-off relay (ie., relay that cuts the EFI or Fuel Pump). Thanks - forgot to mention that. Depending on where it's located (not real hard to get to) - I've even epoxied the switch right to the relay case. Or switch can be hidden somewhere else or done with a hidden key switch in glove box, etc. Bypass switch is also important if vehicle goes in for some kind of mtce and you don't want them to know where the hidden pushbutton is located. Yes, this design is self-arming.
