M1tch Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Hi all, Just wondering if anyone had installed/configured any anti theft or additional security measures using the Link ecu, my car is a road going car so want to add a few additional layers of security. I am thinking perhaps about wiring in a toggle switch to one of the inputs and then hiding it somewhere under the dash so that for the fuel pump to prime (or maybe even to turn the ECU on) the toggle switch would need to be on. Just wondering if anyone had configured anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtihk Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 According to memory, a DI input can be configured as anti-theft. We also in the past fitted a hidden switch to interfere with trigger inputs, not necessarily to disconnect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 A DI configured to antitheft will lock out triggers as well as cut fuel and ignition. Obviously there will need to be a hidden switch somewhere and someone smart could still connect a laptop and turn off the antitheft DI but it will slow someone down at least.

Thanks for that, I did see an anti theft setting for the CANBUS I think, didn't know about the DI option - there are so many options for DI on the list!

jigga009 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 I know that it isn't directly related to the Link as mentioned, but have you given thought to just pulling the fuel pump relays when the car is left unattended? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi guys, could you configure a momentary switch (hold on OR off) for a DI to toggle on off, or does it need to be a permanent toggle? I like the idea of hiding something low profile like this: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B015X34IP6/?coliid=I3BY4YUUPM7IBY&colid=1JGOV4T7UWTO5&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 It needs to be a latching switch for antitheft with the G4+. Note you should be able to find something pretty similar in latching format.
