That I what I thougth it was but it does nothing when the engine is running. Its is a factory switch. You would think it would be in the owners manual. I thought someone might have a Pachanga and can tell me 100% sure that it is a kill switch.
If not I think I will hook it up as a wife ejection switch :drink:

Yes, what they said. I never saw one mounted on a horizontal surface. I have the same type but mounted vertically.

If it doesn't shut-off the engine, it may be bypassed due to failure.
