I have the locker mod done on my '07 but need to get this ESP kill done before I can use it.
You need two wires if you are wiring in a switch.... one for each side that you cut. You cut one wire and cut it in half thus creating two wires. So now you need two new wires to connect to each end and the your switch.



Too bad I still can't find the right wire to make this work for me... Strangely enough while driving the other day out of the blue the ESP/BAS lights came on all by themselves and now don't come on at all. Grrrr.

so if you are using a splice clip you only need a single wire since you are not cutting the original okay and then the other switch terminal can be grounded is this correct to assume
