There is a double connector right bihind where the washer tank sits. It sits 
in a clip. You will see it from under the car, just outside of the 
framerail. Right in front of the fender liner. It has two wires, a Black/Red 
and a small blue. Jumper the Black/Red, and you will be up and running. To 
kill it, I'd pull the three wire connectors on the each of the coils. Maybe 
a fuse you can pull, too.
