Hello,
Reading tech articles and upgrades can be dangerous. I haven't checked the red connector yet, but given the age, I suspect there will be signs of overheating. Then I read Ignition Bypass mod. Hmmm. The RWB seems more needed, lots of failures. The Ignition Relay seems like overkill, also adding several other failure points, and failures don't appear as prevalent in the searches I've done. Additionally, why is there a 70amp relay needed, and then it's wired to a 12gauge wire? The factory wires seem smaller than that as well. I'm not "electrically inclined" but a 70 AMP relay is hugely oversized or the wiring is hugely undersized? Or not? Thoughts?
