Running a similar one for my ignition, should not be a problem.

12VDC is just right and 25A is more than enough for your application. You are good to go.

It depends if you want to cut the positive or negative. I believe the positive is the orange wire.

Look at the wiring diagram(s) in the FSM. Link in my sig.

Since the ad doesn't specify the contact configuration, I'm assuming it's SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw). If it turns out to be a DPST (or DPDT) (Double-Pole, Single- or Double-Throw, respectively), just break both wires.

From the 2009 FSM, pages BRC-76 and BRC-79:
Yaw Rate Sensor connector: M143
M143-1: Ground (B)
M143-2: CAN (Y)
M143-3: CAN (SB)
M143-4: Power (G)

Putting the switch on the power input should do the trick (but I don't guarantee it). I can't remember the color code off the top of my head but I think G = Green. Make sure you don't kill the power to the steering-angle sensor, it gets its power from the same harness connector as the yaw sensor, M6.
