Default MSD Launch Master HELP!!!!

Just installed the launch master in my 06 GT. The only problem I have is that when I'm driving, my RPMS don't exceed the set limit that I put the module on. What the hell did I do?

You either have a bad unit or have it set up wrong. Could be either. I went through two units before I got one that lasted. First one did what you are describing and the second died about 10 months after purchase. Call and speak with MSD and they can trouble shoot the unit and install.

Mine has a direct 12v power supply and then a "normally off" which translates to normally open, I think. Then when the clutch gets depressed all the way to the floor it hits the micro switch and activated the 2 step.

Hope that was helpful.

Did you use the blue wire or the blue/white wire and where did you connect it?

I had a switch panel made for my line locks and my 2-step. This wiring diagram is for the entire switch panel, but it should help anyone who is trying to install the 2-step with a rocker switch. Note: the red LED on the rocker switch only comes on when the switch is activated AND the clutch is depressed.



and here's a picture of the switch installed if it helps. The bottom left is an image of the switches turned on with both systems activated. The blue LEDs didn't show up well in the pic. They look much better in person.
