I'd think you could just disconnect the leads to the switch under the switch panel.

Hook it up through a relay from the accy connector under the seat. also if you know how the accy connector works one of the pins is only powered with switch on. If you need a diagram for relay set up let me know.

BTW, I am curious about the map switch. Did you buy the kit from Dynojet or are you building your own? If so, where did you get the connector to plug into the PCV?

I used the PCV several years ago before switching to the PowerVision. Last night, I was in the garage and found the "switch", I used to flip between maps. It has the connector to plug directly into the acc plug, a relay to flip the switch when you appy power via the acc switch and two wires that just plug into the PCV (no power just completes the circuit as the PV needs).

The switch worked well with the PCV, I had a power map and an economy map
