Hey everyone, I'm about to wire up a manual GP switch and was wondering how many amps my switch should be rated to? Going to pick one up this week and appropriate wiring and fuse.
What about fuse amps?
Figured I would put a add a fuse in the wiring.
So you saying I don't need a fuse in the line?5 or 10 should be plenty. Although, it's a ground connection on 7.3 controller setups so a fuse would be misplaced on a ground wire.

My understanding is that they short to ground. I wired up 2 7.3 systems this way(both 87 6.9s). One side of the switch is hot, the other is ground. When you push the switch it creates a short. I ran the hot wires right off an auxiliary fuse block, and the ground wires to the frames.6.9 GP systems (except in 87) use positive to activate the relay if not mistaken, and 7.3 take ground. I might be remembering wrong though.
