    Shift interrupter switch.

    Hey guys I finally got the engine serial number. 0K157141 5.7L I did find a broken wire behind the throttle shift assembly. When I turn the ignition on I have power to the positive side of the coil when I turn the key off no power. I forgot to mention that we had ran a bypass wire from the key...

    Shift interrupter switch.

    This is the 4.3 distributor. Would that possibly be the module I could change if the 5.7 would plug into it? That number is on the 4.3. Would it be in the same place on the 5.7? Back of the motor above the bell housing?

    Shift interrupter switch.

    The grn/wht wire runs to the distributor. Then I wanna say there is a purple and gray wire coming out of the distributor running to the coil.

    Shift interrupter switch.

    Hey guys sorry I just got back from the movies with my kiddos. I’m trying to follow along with this but it is all brand new to me so forgive any ridiculous questions. I took a few minutes to see if I could find a number on that motor and I didn’t see anything. Is there a universal place where...

    Shift interrupter switch.

    Ok where is the disconnect. Why is it not communicating the way it should be to cause the interrupt? From what I can see all of the wire on the motor harness is good the only differences that it has an actual switch now. Could there be something in the distributor that’s not allowing continuity?

    Shift interrupter switch.

    That’s what I was thinking but it does run into the front of the distributor first. If I just run grn/wt side of the switch directly to the negative side of the coil, would that work??

    Shift interrupter switch.

    I’ll get the serial number for the motor when I get home today. The green and white wire running from the switch does run into the front side of the distributor. Can I bypass all that and just run a wire from the switch to the ground side of the coil??

    Shift interrupter switch.

    Thanks Scott, that would probably explain the trouble we we’re having with the ignition to. If I bypass the distributor and run a wire from the switch to the negative side if the coil would that work?? Thanks!

    Shift interrupter switch.

    Thanks Chris! I’ll get the serial number. I don’t think it’s a mechanical issue. The switch operates as it should mechanically. I know I still need to adjust it because when I put it in reverse it depresses the switch all the way but does not kill the motor. So the switch should operate as...

    Shift interrupter switch.

    Hi guys. I have been looking through all the threads about these switch’s. I have a early 2000 I believe 5.7L LX. It has the thunder bolt ignition. I checked the continuity on the switch with an ohm meter and the switch is good. My switch is wired direct though. Green/white to green/white and...
