Title: Switches
Post by: Gavo on November 21, 2011, 03:41:45 PM

Just putting it out there incase you have done it already :hatwave

Is there a switch out there that can go into the blank space between the Kill switch and the starter button?
Preferably slide left and right for on / off thumb operated. Much like the indicators  left / right. :think1

Want somthing there as a master control swith to operate spot lights, that are currently being fitted. 8)

Switch positions as used by police.(WA)

1.  RednBlue strobes
2.  Strobe on pole plus 1.
3.  1 + 2 and momentary siren.
4.  Siren on
5.  Electronic Pack / siren Power on???(not sure, )
6.  pole light/strobe dim?? (switches an earth in the strobe pack){I know its not on the switch block, its on the left panel on the 1100}
7.  Not used connected (Go to the main right hand connector, just plugs straight in)
8.  Not used connected (Go to the main right hand connector, just plugs straight in)

Some of these configs dont quite match the wiring diagram, and I havent got around to checking them yet.
Top Swich. Kill Switch
Bottom Right. Start switch
