Usually the fuse box is accessible right under the dashboard. Remove the ignition fuse and keep it in your wallet, and the car won't start, without any clear message about what's wrong (most of the time).
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 4y agoI know a local dealership that does this. They have a bowl full of fuses underneath their key lockbox. Pretty funny to see them need to put the fuse in just for a test drive.
- rnk 4y agoI had an old fiat car where it had some unknown electrical problem that would run the some fuel pump thing all the time, even without key. So the solution my grandfather figured out what a kill switch under the dashboard for the fuel pump. Wouldn't start without flipping it. I want this, but on my electric car. Fuses aren't usually so accessible. I made a switch like this on my next (gas) car, but I could get the manuals and find the spot in the wiring diagram. I have no idea how to do this for a tesla. I don't think the fuses are so accessible in evs.

- krimpenrik 4y agoA hidden switch on the wire behind that fuse would be a lot more ergonomic, a thief would just replace the ignition fuse with any other in the panel, he doesn't need the radio to be on :)
