MSD Manual Service Disconnect)

[Ivan Vikhmanov]

Hello guys.
I'm looking for where MSD Manual Service Disconnect is located. If anyone knows, let me know.
Thank you

The best I can suggest is to look here:

Index of /MG4/Manuals

I seem to remember the diagram showing the location was from an oblique angle which made it look like it was near the power steering. Eventually decided it was the bright connector clipped to the battery tray.

I ought to add I only looked out of curiosity and not totally sure I found the right bit.

Thank you for support.
And despite the fact that i still haven't found the location of the HV disconnect switch, i'm amazed at the amount of information available.

Thank you

Probably not sensible for me to have done this, but on the yellow plug in the 1st picture I slid the red tab up which allowed me to pull the plug off.

In the car, the screen showed a message as in the 3rd picture. Is that what you wanted?

It all went back to normal when reconnected without needing any resets etc.

Am I the only person who reads this thread title as "Merck, Sharp and Döhme"?

Nope, certainly not. Can't help it though having worked there for 10,5 years

I read it as Musculo Skeletal Disorder. Probably because of all the HSE training modules we had to do every year when I was working. ?‍

I'm too much of a Trekkie, it's Master Systems Display to me.

I need that yellow plug (MSD) from the second picture DixieTGS - for my car - unfortunately someone took it out and lost it - I'm terribly worried now - do you know where I can buy it?

Is it part number 10519982?

Best regards
Edit : Do you think it's just a two pin jumper? Or is there something else inside?

Its just a jumper, shorting out those two wires going into the connector. You could likely short it out with anything and it would work.
