Lock picking and opening a quad/scooter key switch.

The final component from the cheap eBay quad/scooter wiring loom. It's the key switch that is mostly a visual deterrent to the casual thief.
Before opening it to look at its construction I decided to do a "lock picking lawyer" and have a go at picking it first.
Here's a link to the lock picking lawyer's channel:-

A professional would bypass something like this very easily at an electrical level.
One of the best things to do for security could be adding a simple hidden switch across the kill circuit elsewhere on the bike. Even with the key switch bypassed or unplugged, the bike would only be able to be started by turning the secret killswitch off.

I'm almost sad that I've taken apart the last component on the wiring loom. It was a lot of fun reverse engineering all the components.
For those asking about the cable, it does appear to be copper, and while not being a high current wire (other than the starter cables) it is probably adequate for the job.

If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-
This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.

5:30 I've got a click out of.... all of them.

LPL and Bosnian Bill will be proud of you!

"I'll get my lock-pick set, one moment please..." I was expecting to see a hammer!

[baconcatbug]

Oh wow, a 7 minute LPL video, the lock must be amazing...

WAAAIT A :P

For a second I thought this was a LockPickingLawyer video and was confused as to what could possibly make a scooter key switch so pick resistant that would warrant a 7 minute video.

I was expecting him to return with a screwdriver instead of an actual lockpicking set.

1:44 "I'm gonna go and get the tool that Bosnian Bill and I made"? :D

I like how all of us are subscribed to the same list of epic youtubers!

[benbaselet]

Mmm.. I've just been watching a bunch of LPL videos. This was pleasing.

Waiting for the LPL / Bosnian Bill / Big Clive joint effort - breaking into an alarmed, "secure" facility - BB builds the tools, LPL picks the locks, and BC "disables" the Chinese alarm system (complete with capacitor dropper power supply). Now, THAT would certainly be "Quality Entertainment" for everyone!

HAHAH OMG "its all poured out" and here Im picturing the LPL at the screen

"This is the lockpicking Manx"

"Lost my scooter keys"
Google: Here's a list of certified locksmiths.

Well, the lock or the system isn't secure, but, to be fair, if your bike were equipped with this loom, nobody would want to steal it anyway.

In a recent video from the LockLab Bosnian Bill took apart a Bluetooth controlled key safe, in the comments people suggest that he send the electrics for analysis to you 👍

[gordonlawrence]

I have been waiting for a vid where a thing under investigation spontaneously turns into a pile of springamathings widgets and ball bearings for ages. And HERE IT IS

[wktodd]

First Bosnian Bill now Clydside Clive!

[MarkusNemesis]

I clicked on this video thinking it was LPL, and I damn near shat myself when a deep booming voice greeted me!

[shawnsousa]

Absolutely love how informative Lock Picking Lawyers channel is. Awesome to know that you're as fascinated with his content as I am... Long live LPL

Lock picking Clive with "gentle" pressure... Bosnian bill would call that bullying..
