Install a battery cutoff switch c 2-6-08  
Has anyone installed a battery cutoff
switch in a rv cab instead of the engine bay???if so how???
Re: install a battery cutoff switch mike 2-6-08  
Not very easy to put switch in cab as you would have to run heavy cables from the battery. It can be done using a relay to switch the battery in and out of the circuit. Why do you need it in the cab? MIKE

The easiest way is to identify where the accessory power comes off the main battery feed and wire a 100 to 150 amp continuos duty relay in that circuit. Then wire a switch to run it. I have done several this way including the inside master kill for my race car. Good luck

I bought a joe's racing battery kill switch for my jeep wrangler for security reasons (it will be mounted in a locked steel compartment in the cab) but I have no idea how to hook it up. It has four terminals on the bottom, as specified by the website for vehicles with alternators.... I'm lost here. What do I do?
