Switch use

[Tommy]

I wired my car primarily for track use and authenticity was not a concern. First, I purchased on/off toggle switches with built in circuit breakers. If a circuit pops, the toggle drops and can be reset by cycling the switch. Each switch is sized (amps) for the circuit it controls: Ignition, fuel pump, Accusump, fan and lights. The ignition and fuel pump switches have guarded covers so they can be quickly turned off by slapping the red covers down. The light switch turns on the instrument lights, front parking lights, tail lights and dim head lights. A push button switch on the steering wheel controls a relay that powers the bright headlights whenever the ignition circuit is on. That allows me to flash the bright headlights whether or not the light circuit is on.
