How to Hotwire a Car

12/17/2014

0 Comments

 
This is for informational purposes only. Hotwiring a car is dangerous and there is a substantial risk of electrical shock.

Items Needed
  • Wire cutters and strippers
  • Pliers
  • Flathead screwdriver
  • Phillips head screwdriver
  • Hammer
  • Insulated gloves

  1. Hammer the flathead screwdriver into the ignition and turn it like you would a regular key. If you need help turning it, use the pliers to turn the screwdriver. (On some cars, this act alone will start the car.)
  2. Remove the screws and panels above and below the steering column. Once the panels are removed you will see several wires underneath the steering column.
  3. Locate the two red wires. These provide power to the vehicle.
  4. Put on insulated gloves. Cut both red power wires and strip the ends. Then twist the two red wires together.
  5. Locate the brown wires. Some cars have only one brown wire and others have two. These wires connect to the starter.
  6. Cut both brown wires. Strip the ends. Then touch the two wires together to start the car. Once the car is started do not let the wires touch again, keep them separated. Do not let the ends touch you or you will get shocked. If the car has only one brown wire, then touch the brown wire to the red power wires to start the car.
  7. If the steering wheel is not already unlocked, jam the flathead screwdriver in between the top of the steering column and top of the steering wheel and break the lock.
  8. To turn the car off when done driving, simply separate the two red power wires.
Remember, hotwiring is dangerous and you could get electrocuted.
