    Scott,

    Not sure what is wrong with our phone system. Trying to figure it out. Some calls are going through just fine and other people are getting a busy signal and not getting our message system. Feel free to email us at sales @ epicracingproducts.com.

    You can use a normally open ProArmour or Pro Design kill switch and hook it up to the black wire and the black/white wire on the key switch.

    Thanks

    The wire to hook up the teather up on the ds450 is the black and white wire?

    You hook the the tether up to the black wire and black wire with white stripe. But you don't cut them and tie them together, you peel back the rubber and direct connect them. I had mine saudered together.

    How does hooking it up to 2 wires work? You normally just cut 1 wire and put the teather in where you cut it. Where do them wires go?

    that is because it is a normally open (NO) design compared to a normally closed (NC) design. when the tether is pulled, it should cause a short between the 2 wires compared to a normally closed design which would open the path of the 1 wire that was spliced.

    if your still stuck, just google "normally open switch" or "normally closed switch"
    that will give a lot more detail about basic electrical switch operation and connections
