O/D Lock Switch Relocation

879 Views 13 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  SFGiants
For the auto guys out there, has anyone relocated their O/D switch? I'd like to install a fuel pressure gauge in the dash where it sits. I already have a block of accessory rocker switchers with a couple blanks remaining, so was thinking I could simply add a switch and connect it there.

Anyone know how complicated the stock wiring of this switch is and if this would be possible?

I'm also open to ideas for other locations for the FP gauge. I already have the 3-gauge A-pillar, and am not too big on the steering column pod that appears to badly obstruct the speedo.

I don't know why you couldn't relocate it to a rocker switch, when you unplug the wires from the back of the dash switch just add longer wires to the existing ones that will reach to the new switch. In the 11 years that I drove my 97 never once did I ever shut the OD off so unless it's something that you always do it wouldn't matter where you would relocate your switch.
You could remount the OD button when you remove it so that you don't have to buy a momentary switch.

You can buy some really small momentary switches, if you decide not to use your factory one and remount it.
