no, remove toggle switch completely. You are bypassing resistors completely with switch and sending 12v directly to ECU. Might as well not have then at all. Should look like this:

ign.switch -> grey -> 100-ohm -> 100-ohm -> grey -> ECU

No other wires of any kind involved! You want to remove ANY non-stock wiring and have just above connections. 2x resistors and that's it.

Where does that grey wire with open end in upper-right of 1st photo go?
What is voltage on grey wire just before ECU?

Also DO NOT use wire-nuts! They are not reliable and will fail in X-amount of time due to vibration and leave you stranded. All connections must have following 3 components:

1. mechanical strength - knot or air-free crimp
2. electrical conductivity - soldered joint
3. weatherproofing - sealed from elements with water-tight connectors or adhesive heat-shrink wrap

Right now, it's toss-up as to whether your wiring is correct or have bad connections. It could very well be that you've got circuit correct, but connections are just bad. You will not find this kind of connection in pro-motorsports, aerospace or military wiring for a reason.
