How does the window switch work on a DBW car? I haven't looked that closely, but I'm pretty sure there's nothing on the TB that could mechanically close a switch. Would you put it on the pedal and hope that the ECU doesn't close the throttle plate, or are there more intelligent ones that can be installed inline on the harness to the TB and electronically know when the TB is fully open?

And back on topic... I'm a cop Mia...
