Starter interrupt

Hi

I have an antitheft interrupt circuit that I'm installing in a 2004 F250 Diesel, automatic. I have the option to interupt 3 circuts.
I'm looking for some ideas on which 3 electrical circuts to disable.

Thanks,
Sid

Fuel pump relay coil

Small wire going to the starter relay

If you have a starter with the solenoid built in, interrupting the solenoid power will work.

Thanks,

Any ideas on where I can get a wiring diagram for this truck?

You don't need one.
Just interupt the wire that goes from the Ignition to the starter relay with a keyed switch.
The best location is near the relay itself with the switch somewhere that is in-accessible from the cab.
Mine is in the door frame where the dome light switch is.

I'll have to get under the hood and look around. I just picked up the truck
and don't have any idea where anything is located. Is there an underhood box with
all the relays? Are they marked?

Thanks

Follow the wire(s) to the starter and see if there is a relay attached to the.

I'm trying to help but I haven't really spent any time with Newr trucks.
