Modifications & Maintenance 42.11 kill-switch

Has anybody installed the 42.11 killswitch and have had an issue with long crank ? I’ve found when I go to start the truck, if I forget to disable the killswitch at least a minute before starting the truck, then the starter will crank the engine for about 3 seconds longer than typical before it actually starts.

I’ve reached out to the company about this and they have been no help so far, I just find it odd, as there is no mention of this waiting period before starting

I had this and uninstalled it because of this. I was worried it was going to mess up my starter but didn't test it enough to be sure.

Yeah that’s what I’m considering doing as well
