So I followed the instructions here and here's a picture of the wire I cut, showing where I spliced the wires for the switch.

Is this the correct wire?

The question I have is this:

Should I get a CEL when I start the car? I have the switch in position on the drivers side, and no matter whether it's on the on or off position, I don't get a CEL when I start the car. I reset the ECU and still no CEL.

I just took it out for a quick test and got to 122mph before I ran out of road. Previously I would hit the limiter at 119mph (4th gear)

Just checked again and in the "On" position, the limiter cuts in at 116mph.
In the "Off" position I hit 125 mph before I slowed down.

 

Oh and another question. How do I get my switch to light up?

It's got three connectors,
1. Ground
2. to relay
3. to positive

The diagram shows that the switched circuit is between position 2 and 3.

 

the CEL wont' come on right away.. it will come on eventually

 

thanks for the clarification.

 

If you don't run the limiter off all the time, but only once in a while, will the light still come on?

Doesn't the computer have to read like 3 or 4 faults in a row before the CEL will come on? If so, normal driving with the limiter intact, and one burst with it off shouldn't cause a CEL even after a few months or so. Right?

Correct.

A little outburst of speed every once in a while wont trip it. It comes on after about 10 minutes of driving without it.

 

I installed the switch today, So far, so good. I drove two 1 hour trips today, and no CEL, so the circuit must be intact.

Here's a picture of my switch position (the red thing)

 

i am sorry.. i meant if you were not running without a switch..
