I made a remote starter once out of a spanner. I can't remember what I was doing, but it can't have been any part of the electrical system, because I hadn't taken the negative lead off the batter (cos I'm stoopid). Anyway, I must have shorted out something on the starter leads, cos the car kicked over while I was working on the motor. As if that didn't give me a big enough fright, the car was in gear at the time, and drove into my leg.

Fortunately it didn't actually start, or I would have been run over by my own car.

I've got more careful about removing the negative earth now.
