Instruction – How to hotwire a car


Step 1: Try hammering a screwdriver into the ignition

Of course, before doing any step, you have to be in the car. In the attempt to remove the ignition, you first need to knock the screwdriver into the ignition. Hold the hammer firmly by your dominant hand. The other hand should be used to hold the screwdriver. Keep putting a consistently strong force upon the head of the flathead screwdriver by knocking your hammer on it.

Step 2: Play around with the screwdriver

It is a norm if the ignition does not move. Thus, you should wiggle the flathead screwdriver around until the ignition starts running. The thing about hotwiring a car is not about making the screwdriver penetrate deeply into the ignition. Instead, you should hit the tumbler to get it out of the way. As you can tap the flat-head screwdriver into the ignition, turn it like a key.

Notes: You should be acutely aware of the side effects of hotwiring your car. As you pound the screwdriver into the ignition, it will damage the ignition cylinder. However, it may be appropriate if you do this on the cars that were manufactured before the mid-90s.In case the car is still too stubborn to start, you should pull the screwdriver out of the ignition. Next, remove all the screws in the panels on the top and the bottom of the steering column.

Step 3: Expose the ignition

A flat-head screwdriver should be used again to remove the plastic panels covering the ignition cylinder. As you remove the ignition cover, you will see the wires inside it. This step demands a lot of patience and gentleness on the actions. Using too much force to pull out the wires can make them break and consequently ruin the steering column.

Step 4: Identify the power and the starter wires

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

You do not really know how to hotwire a car until you know these 3 important things.

First, you must break the ignition. You should be able to turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and to the right to turn the display on.

Second, you must locate the wires connecting to the ignition and cut all of them.

Third, be very careful. Test the wires by tapping them together and find the power wires, the head-up display wires, and the starter wires. This step could take you a bit of time if you have never done it before.

NotesIn most cars, the two red wires regulate the car’s power. One or two brown wires make up the starter. However, it is always recommended to consult your car manual to identify the wire color code.

Step 5: Connect the power wires

Once you find out where all three kinds of wires are, it’s now time to tie the power wires together. It gives you more strength if you wear the gloves. Then, use the stripper to cut the power wires off the ignition cylinder. Next, strip the ends and twisting them together to their stripped ends. This is to provide the power to the light, radio and other electrical systems in the car.

Step 6: Start the car

The same action is taken on the starter wires. Cut the starter wires from the cylinder and strips the ends. However, you are not going to connect the starter wires by twisting them together. Simply touch the starter wires together until the car starts. Separate them and tape the ends to make sure you are not shocked while driving.

Notes: Be very careful in this step. You don’t want to touch the exposed ends because they have a powerful live current and it will definitely shock you.If your car has only one starter wire, touch it to the stripped ends of the power wires to start the car

Step 7: Handle the additional security

In some cases, the steering wheel lock’s bolt can be open by simply wedging the screwdriver into the space between the steering column and the steering wheel. However, modern cars now have much more complicated wheel locks and electronic key system. They make it seemingly impossible to be hotwired without using tools and in-depth understanding about the car’s ignition.

Step 8: Stop the car

You can turn the vehicle off by simply pulling the power wires away from each other.


Above are the detailed instruction on how to hotwire a car. I hope that you find it helpful. Just so you know, there are some other ways to start a car without the key. And you definitely can consult them in other sources. However, I myself think that this option is the least complicated way to do so. Hope you enjoy my article.
