I just tried it on my car. I have an alternator and the kill switch is on ground. The car was running and and the kill switch could not turn the car off. DUH!

Does anyone have a fix for this?
We are talking disconnect switch not kill switch. Your ignition switch wouldn't turn it off either?

Same if you blow the fuse people install on the starter, Alternator continues to feed ignition.

You could have your wifey pull the coil wire??

I have a fuse in the ignition circuit so I guess I could pull that if I was ever in that situation.

I also have my ignition circuit wired so the ignition switch is before the coil.
