suppose rebuilding this switch is not really feasible. So I guess I will
install a generic switch in the dash for now and mull a bit over investing $175
for an ISP repro switch…<o:p></o:p></span></p>

for the ignorance, but I am quite confused about the relay business. Would I

40 amps. Looking at the top of the relays in the fuse box, it will be marked

guess what I am trying to say is that I would like to have explained how the

keep the solenoid current out of it with a relay, and I get caught on trips
etc. in the summer so you may have to wait for a week or 2 if im away or really
busy when it arrives.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
