any one heard that if you take out your hazard light switch and turn it around the dash lights come on just done it on mine and it worked, doesnt this mean that if somone was to break in and did this they would be able to push start it, mine has an alarm would they be able to do it with this!!!

Im sure theres something you can do about it, Soldering a diode to the pins or something similar to prevent it happening?

All this does is put the igniton lights on. nothing else.

Is DOES NOT stop your immboliser.

Its not a real advantage to a car thief its doesnt take two seconds too start it with a screwdriver.

And you still have your steering lock on anyway..
