Thanks for all the replies.

All of my research, it seems (at least on the R32) there is no ignition sense line. Looks like I'm going to have to remove everything (by god it was a bitch to stuff everything in there in the first place) and run a wire from the fuse box. If i can find the ignition sense; rumored to have something at the fuse box, I can tap into it for that. If not, I will bury a switch under the dash.

I really want to sick an angry mob of midgets armed with Hormel summer sausages on the individuals responsibe for the engineering of the whole monsoon system.
