[s-cars] Steering Servo Disable - turning it on and off?

[Fred Munro]

Hi Chris;

I recall someone posting on this several years ago. From what I recall it's
not a simple as a switch - something about the car having to be shut off and
restarted every time the switch position was changed to reset to relay to
"on" or "off". The details are kind of foggy - you might be able to find
something in the archives.

But hey, then again it might be that simple. I just pulled the relay - my
wife doesn't like driving a stick!

I think Aaron may want to easily turn the servo on and off.

Would it be hard to find the positive lead feeding the relay and then
put a switch in that feed locating the switch someplace easy to reach.
Perhaps the switch could be located in the glove box where the wifey
wouldn't accidentally trip it.

This way Aaron turns the servo off when he is driving it and back on
before he parks the car, allowing wifey to have the car sestup the way
she likes it when she drive sit.

Thoughts?
