Cool. Sent you an email. I think we can work this out.

 

Is this push-to-start/push-to-stop, or push-to-start/use-key-to-stop? If the later, is there a lockout to keep from grinding the starter when the engine is already running?

 

It would be a push to start, key/toggle switch to turn off. Just like the stock keyswitch there is no interlock to prevent double starting. It could be done but would require additional circuitry and also splicing into the ECU harness to make it work right (so no longer PNP.)

 

Any one curious as to how to do this without spending but 30 buck let me know, i will tell you.

 

illeniummx5, the whole idea here is not about how easy or not it is to rewire the harness for a custom situation, this adapter/package is to allow a plug and play solution without modification to the harness because either you don't want to permanently modify and/or to avoid having to delve into the wiring that much.

To update everyone: It's been QUITE some time, I know...
Things have been up in the air for awhile and I made the move with Nick up to Lake Tahoe and have been a snow bum for awhile now. I haven't forgotten about this project. I'm now finally getting back to several projects so hopefully I'll have something together around spring in time for the summer race season. (I don't want to promise anything too early and then not stick to it.) I'll update as I have a prototype together and will re-assess people's interests then.

Thanks again all for your (continued) interest in this!

Neil

 

Updates?

 

I'm in if its with the S2000 button!!!!

 

Nothing's really changed since my last post. Tho due to low snowfall in here in Tahoe I may have more time to get going on this a bit earlier than spring.

Totally dude! S2K button will absolutely be an option.

 

Still selling the harness? Very interested! Pls PM me

 

I'm in if these ever get done...

 

It's been 2 years, it's not getting done. However, if you really want a pushbutton starter, there are 3 writeups at m.net: Miata Garage Interior
