Can you explain how you connected up the Cartek Isolator. Specifically the top right connection? I understand where the Ground and Main connection come from, but I can't figure out where to tap the ignition one from.

Here is the wiring diagram. Tap into the fuel signal (fuel pump module), it will cut off the ignition.

Thanks. Was there an easy close way to do so in the trunk? Are you using a fuse piggyback?

yes, added a 30amp inline fuse between the in between the fuel pump and the cteck - installed it closer to the cteck for ease of access

ninekrpm I connected up the Cartek as described. Cuts off the fuel pump no issues, but there's still power to car, and the engine doesn't stop cranking until it runs out of fuel. Is this the same as your setup?
