   Hi, im trying to fit a switch on one of the coil wires to stop the car from starting, where would i find the correct wire to tap into ? preferably inside the car or at a fuse box (not sure what fuse)
   
   its a 2002 vtr silvertop 3plug
   
   i have looked at the wiring diagrams but im a bit crap at following wiring diagrams
   
   cheers

   On the coild pack there is a plug connected, it has 3 thin light blue wires coming off there, dont know which one would stop it running, i have cut all 3 myself to wire up a rpm guage on a 1.1, but i think it would have to break all 3 wires for it not to run i think they all do seperate timing for the spark plugs, (not proffesional so no responsiblity taken) goodluck other than that my old clio mk1 the doors wouldnt lock and the key was jammed in somehow cut a long story short i left it running with hood up and diconnected wires untill it cut out, and then i tapped a switch into that i wired mine to rear heated window switch lol, look for plugs arpud the engine bay, messig with the coil pack is abit of a mission tbh good lick

   Can I ask why you`re doing this when there is already a factory fitted anti-theft system?

   ^ most likley because nothing is anti theft, anless youve created a way yourself, a car theif wont no youve disconected the battery for example, but he obviously knows how to rob the car normaly otherwise h wouldnt have broken Into it lol
