Car still runs with key off ..have I wired this right?

There is no way for the alternator to feed back if it's connected to the battery. Sounds like something else is wrong. Can you detail your other wiring?


For example what are you running for igntiion IE does it use a ballast and if so how did you run the bypass circurit

What exactly is this we are dealing with, and is it mostly stock wiring, or chopped up factory, or all after market? And what exactly are you using for an ignition switch.

Hi there

MSD distributor, box mounted inside...Battery cable from rear to a pole under dash, from here it powers new fuse box, MSD box, battery line to starter motor and powers factory starter relay thats been moved inside also..Factory ignition switch, tapped the hot wire in the "start" position and wired that to the starter relay. Have 2 power wires that run to the hot wires in the factory loom I removed from the bulkhead ( one that was from the battery feed and the one the alternator would have provided ) that went to ammeter,and powered the factory fuse box,wipers, lights etc...Ive joined the ammeter wires together and sealed
Everything seems to work, its just the engine wont shut down on the key
