Relocate and New Ballast Switches

[jstenger]

So I am redoing the interior and getting new dash switch covers from the guys at OTRATTW (took me a while to figure out THAT name)

So I figured that I would also take the time to replace and relocate the rediculous stock placement of the Hippo Ballast Switches up higher were we can

1. See them
2. Get to them
3. Hopefully not leave them on
4. NOT Fill/Dump the wrong ones

• Can I replace the existing 6 switches with 3 switches?
• And would they be DPDTs? (Double Pole Double Throw)

Thanks, Eric.

If you are using three reversabale pumps, you need three DPDT switches. You will need to bring a (-) lead to the center left and a (+) lead to the center right of each switch. Wakemakers has a wiring diagram for this.

If you are using six aerator pumps (three fill and three empty), you can use three DPDT switches or three SPDT switches. You only need to bring the (+) lead to the center of the switch. The grounds (-) for all the pumps can go directly to the ground block. And note that you only need to use one side of the DPDT switch in this case.

Cool switches. I like the eject seat one.
