It wires in to the engine compartment. After it is installed they leave you with a button that you have to plug in before the vehicle starts. It is an anit-theft device.Venus Pax wrote:Our truck is the F-150. I know this isn't what the more dedicated campers use to tow, but our trailer is light and this is the truck/trailer combination we could afford.
I'm curious about the fuses. How would I know which fuses to remove to keep the truck from starting? I'm wondering if this plus the club would make a decent 1-2 punch to keep them from taking off in our truck. Have any of you pulled the fuses regularly? Has this caused you any electrical problems? I just talked to my husband about that, and he's worried that this would mess up our electrical and leave us stranded.
To answer Interblog's question: The service department at our local Ford dealership said that they reached their hands under the front grill and disabled the horn so that the alarm wouldn't draw attention. They busted the handle, which he said took less than a minute, and this gave them access to the cab. He said that the reason they went through our console is because most people keep their valet keys in there. They were planning to simply drive it out of the lot. My husband said he didn't even know if we have a valet key.
