Ballast Switches

(chadgreg) · (chadgreg) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 03-18-2008, 1:41 PM

I am installing a ballast system in my outback LSV and need 3 Ballast switches. I want something that has the screenprint on it (fill / empty Etc..) I am running 1 fill and 1 empty pump on each bag so I need a switch that will run 2 pumps. The dealer wanted over $250!!!

Any suggestions?

A dealer should be able to get the factory style switches.

I got these from a Mastercraft dealer in MN for like $6 each, so I would definitely keep looking.

I installed these for my system to do exactly what you described. They are Contura ON/OFF/ON switches from www.go2marine.com

They were not expensive. They are not labeled but I wired them so the FILL is UP, EMPTY is Down; they are SPDT (4 poles on the back)

Ordered these on E-bay, Looks like they will work perfect and only $30.99 for 3 delivered.

Thanks for the help!

Lenny, Sinko had the switch for tower lights, and he said he got them from his MC dealer.
