    I'm driving my truck to Baja and I want to install a kill switch. I have read a few "how-tos" on the subject but I have found some conflicting info on exactly which color wire to splice a toggle switch into. Or in that fact, the wire location. I'm guessing the fuel pump wire is the easiest to get to?

    Can someone tell me exactly which wire to cut on my exact model? I just want to make sure I do it right the first time.

    Thanks for the help!

    All I have is a manual for an 01, but it looks like you could put a switch in the white wire with a blue stripe that connects the ecu and the fuel pump relay.

    Thanks, that’s helpful. And where is that located exactly? I appreciate it.

    Looks like it’s under the dash on the left hand side, C6
