Default Switch for Turboxs Dual BC. What kind to use...

I got a dual boost controller for cheap...turboxs one. It didn't come with the switch. no big deal as I hate the switch that comes with it. I wanted something a little smaller than what it usually comes with.

so, my question...is there a certain type I should look for? Or are all switches the same...i.e. on/off. I assume that's what the turboxs does? When it turns "off" it's basically switching it back to the other setting for the controller.

Any help would be great. I want to make sure I know what switch to look for...not too familiar with this type of stuff

no they wont work unless you find one that is stays pressed in after you push it. Its needs to hold current or ground in order for the solenoid to activate. So if you use a push starter button or "momentary" button then your high boost solenoid will only activate for however long you hold the button down.

well, I ended up getting this one at autozone..I guess it should work

has a place for power, ground, and "load"...I guess that's for the signal sent to the controller


It matches the interior...it's black and suttle looking. Has some led on it that lights up amber when I switch it on.
