I hope the CULT can help me out. One of the prongs on my switch broke and when I tried to remove it from the dash, I broke the whole switch. It is the off-on switch that goes to my cabin power from the dash. I am leaving for a Poker Run in four days and I need one fast! If anybody has a spare or knows were to get one, please contact me. I know it will cost me.

Thanks Pat! I sent you an e-mail and I will give you a call tomorrow. Yes, there are no mufflers so I was thinking of using that switch. But after breaking one, I didn't want to take the chance of breaking another one. Thanks for your help guys.

I'm still hunting for a switch! Thanks slboatsdrinks for the link. I got in touch with CMS today. They didn't have the one I needed but got one that was close (white switch/black bezel/amber light). Pat ended up not having one. He gave me the number to his supplier and they didn't have any in their whole system in the U.S.. They could order it for me from Carling but I would have had to order sixteen of them. If anybody runs across some, let me know. Next winters project might be a new dash.

Thanks Griff. That's not exactly the same switch but pretty close. It has a 250v light and mine is a 12v and the connections are a little different. That being said, I ordered two of them. I think I can make it work. I wont have them in time for the run so last night I made a jumper wire to connect the two red wires from the switch. At least I'll have cabin power for the weekend.
