Switches should NOT get HOT. The do NOT do work. They turn other devices that do the work ON and OFF. If a switch gets HOT it is flowing too much current and will eventually fail again. Maybe the circuit was poorly designed.

it will get warm especially when using the lights but not hot to the touch if there is something wrong that is making it get to hot,it should blow a fuse that operates some function with the lights inside or outside the vehicle

It's too hot? Then I would have it checked out by a mechanic or GET because it's use is to turn on lights or control interior dome and to dimmer your panel. Unless you have a short or defective switch.

I believe it will U might have to make your on lead wire for the hot side. There easy to make you can buy them at about any auto store. Buy the same size wire and eyelets and this switch will be wired in between your Hot wire. This switch works very well for my application Good Luck on yours.

Mine still works fine. Maybe it has dirt in e switch. I would try a good cleaning around the switch and see if you can free it up.

I still have the initial fuses. Don't move it when it's working nor after working. It needs time to get cold. If you don't do that the fuses use to break.

Most likely, my 2005 Tahoe slowly got cranky about changing temp and would turn from A/C to full heat without warning. It finally got stuck on full heat and stayed that way. It's a common problem with these trucks. Replaced the stock one with this part and it fixed the problem. Pretty cheap fix if you do it yourself.

Jumping on this one... similar problem... charger dropped but the RED wire came off of the 2/12/75 switch... can you comment on where THAT one goes? Thanks....

That is absolutely a faulty warmer, I'd get a functional replacement ASAP. Mine exhibits none of those characteristics when switched on.

This switch should be fine on your truck as long as the circuit your planning on using it on doesn't draw more than 20 amps, hopefully drawing a little less so the switch isn't operating at it's limit continuously.

The heated elements do work, I'm sure you could put in a separate switch if your truck isn't all ready equipped, but you'd have to find out how much amperage is drawn from them and wire/fuse/ relay accordingly...

Does the amp work and power your subs? Trace your wires and make sure everything is in the right place. Do not turn the knob to full on yet cause it can't break easy, put it halfway or under half. And turn your car over and see if it works? If not send me another question and ill look at mine specifically

I don't think it's normal. That is why I returned mine. Would not run for more than a few minuets before overheating and the safety would shut it off. I know of people who have had success with it but not me and looks like not you either. I'd return it because overheating that quickly could lead to blown fuses or fire.

Because it is a two stage switch I would contact the company for a new switch. If you do repair it as the others suggest you are breaking the case integrity and any mosture will creep in. Delphie

Been there done that, the electric start didn't wirk. So I kick started it , I went 0-35 out of my garage into rear end of truck...there is no idle or shift so don't do what I did, u could end up dead. The company I bought from finally agreed to reimburse me, but not shipping.Amazon will get $ back to my account and giving me provincial credit for my shipping costs..this is an ongoing problem with this scooter and the Co. That sell it know it. Sorry I'm not buying another one

I'm pretty sure it's "hot", the trigger just causes the wire to feed. I don't see why that would be a big deal. Turn the thing off when not in immediate use. Probably some regulatory goon, industry or union person looking for an "issue" to limit competition.

The wire that goes to the light if I remember is either the blue or green and should be hot when u turn the key sounds like it's wired to the blinkers just try to move a fee around I run a 2 prong but just updated to a 3

I'm having the same problem on 2 seperate switches, bc I bought 2. Wiring is correct as I'm using a voltometer to identify the hot/neutral wires. Ground is also wired correctly. The settings have been adjust, still both switchs just "flash" once "on" =(

This is not the problem. It has only one connection and that one only to switch from left to right tank. In the newer models this type of switch has more connections. I think you have a broken wire in the circuit to fuel level sender or a bad ground.
