I am going to be putting a starter kill into my wifes 2010 santa fe 3.5 with a hidden switch or two... We are in N.J. and my wife is always at the mall for something and there are a lot of cars stolen there and i also get a slight reduction on my insurance

What does everyone recommend it already has a factory alarm which is a little better than nothing..
 
This is something I found about car ant-theft systems.

http://www.nohotwire.com/index.html

They claim to be on the market since the 70's with not even 1 car stolen. With over 3,500,000 installations worldwide over the last 30 years, and ZERO thefts, the Ravelco is the only device proven to prevent auto theft.

The fully installed price to install a Ravelco Anti-Theft Device in a 2006 Nissan Titan is $399.95, plus tax.

There is no additional charge for our mobile service. We will to come to you to do the installation. Having the Ravelco installed couldn't be easier- we do installations by appointment and one of our mobile professionals will come to your home or office to perform the installation. There is no need for you to drive to us, leave your home or take a day off work. The installation takes about two hours per vehicle.

With California Ravelco there are no hidden fees, no monthly maintenance charges, and no annual inspections. The Ravelco has a lifetime warranty, and we’ll even come inspect the device for free if you have an attempted theft on your vehicle. If the device is damaged during an attempted theft, we’ll replace it for free the first time.


In summary, for $399.95 you are getting the Ravelco ATD, two uniquely coded Ravelco plugs, two window stickers, two quick-release detachable key chains, and installation at your home or work. Not to mention you are getting the only auto security device that will give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing your car won't be stolen.

NEXT STEPS
We have a few appointments open in the next couple days. Just call us toll-free at 1-866-NoHotwire (1-866-664-6894) and we’d be happy to answer questions or book an appointment.

Best regards,

i want a passive starter kill omega makes one au-sin which is hard to find...I like that one but im not sure it is like $15.00 for the system wholesale
 
I like the idea of a fuel pump cutoff. Then it'll crank and crank, might even sputter. Thief will think somethings wrong.

Does that car have an immobilizer ignition key? A lot of the new stuff does.
 
The simplest way to do the starter kill is to use a 30 amp Bosch relay. Wire it so the relay has to be energized to complete the starter circuit at the ignition switch. Here is one way to do it:

At the ignition switch, there is a black 6 pin connector, and the starter wire should be green. The starter wire has voltage on it only when the ignition key is in the start position. Cut the starter wire so you can make the connections to the relay. On the steering column there is a white 4 pin connector for the brake light switch, and there should be a wire in the connector for the 12 volt output to the brake lights when the brake pedal is depressed. The wire should be gray. Tap into the gray wire with a separate wire so you can connect it to the relay. Be sure you check the functions of the brake light wire and the starter wire with a voltmeter to be sure you have the correct wires.

Wire the relay like this:

Terminal 85 to chassis ground
Terminal 86 to the positive brake light output wire
Terminal 87 to the ignition switch side of the cut starter wire
Terminal 30 to the starter side of the cut ignition switch wire
No connection on terminal 87a

In this configuration, you would have to press the brake pedal to energize the relay and complete the starter wire circuit in order to start the car. The car may wired like that anyway, or it may be wired so you have to press the brake to shift from park to drive.

If you wanted to make it more complicated for a potential car thief, put a simple toggle switch in series on the ground wire for the relay and hide the switch in the glove box or the center console box. Then you would have to flip the toggle switch before the relay could be energized and allow the car to start. This would create a second step before the car can be started and possibly a potential car thief would give up on your car and move on to another car. If the car has a cigarette lighter, you could also get very creative and unplug the lighter if you don't use it for anything. Then connect the ground and positive terminals on the lighter socket in series on the ground wire for the relay, so you have to push the lighter in and make it act like a toggle switch to complete the ground circuit for the relay.

You can wrap the relay with electrical tape to disguise it and also insulate the terminals, and then hide the relay pretty much anywhere you wish.

You could also buy a simple keyless entry system, and it will have its own dedicated starter kill output that is connected to an outboard starter kill relay. Directed Electronics (DEI) makes several keyless entry systems that can work the same as the factory Hyundai keyless. They also make a factory keyless entry upgrade system that includes and alarm and starter kill outputs, which would allow you to add starter kill, parking light flash and an alarm, but continue using the factory Hyundai keyless entry remotes. You can visit www.directed.com for more info and to find a DEI dealer in your area.
