surprised there wouldn't be a relay. I guess you could add them to take the load off the switch contacts if they tend to burn up. then just use the same power wire to run the coil of the relay instead of the actual lights. and then the high amp contacts could move there. If that's a common issue. the switch would function the same but the contacts would only run the coil of the contactor and very little load then, but some rewiring perhaps unnecessary unless this is an issue. no point making mods if its not an issue.

Its quite a load so there will be an arc when the contacts open. yes I need to work on navigating the site, i think I was in there before. I have the schematic on my drive at home but its a bit hard to view from where I am now. If the schematic shows no relay , my apologies for leading the thread a little off kilter. I figured he had the switch function so questioned if he needed to replace that. I was wrong before, once at least ;-)
