Switchs

Compatibility is essential. Carefully check the original part number printed on the old switch. If this number matches one of the compatible numbers indicated in the product sheet of the replacement part you are considering, then the switch is correct for your engine. If you have any doubts or uncertainties, do not hesitate to send us a photo of your switch and the engine model. Our team will be happy to help you identify the right replacement part.

How do I know if the switch is faulty?

If the engine does not start or has electrical malfunctions, the first thing to do is check the battery and fuses. If these components are in good condition, the problem may lie in the switch. Use a tester to check if the switch closes the circuit correctly when pressed or moved. A faulty switch may have internal corrosion, oxidized contacts, or breaks in the circuit.

What are the risks of using non-original switches?

Using non-original switches can involve several risks. These components may have a lower current rating than that required by your engine, causing overheating and potential damage to the wiring. Furthermore, the build quality may be lower, resulting in less resistance to salt spray, vibrations, and mechanical stress. This can lead to false contacts, malfunctions and, ultimately, a reduction in the reliability of your engine.
