I changed all mine to toggles except the break test (that got binned)

Side lights and headlights had their own separate switches which solves the multipole problem, the hazards where sorted with a few diodes.

This is a diagram from someone on here (can't remember who now) that rewired their switches, I hope they don't mind me sharing it :)

Hi That diagram is mine. I have no issues with it being shared but it may be a bit missleading for this application.

It relates to savage switches and the diodes & resistors are about gaining a low backlight on the switch with a brighter one when the switch is active. I'm guessing not a reqiurement on this occasion.

The wiring of all the functions is possible with the switches shown but needs a little thought, especially the hazzards. (need a relay). I'm doing some for another member on here where he has gone to the MK11 with a single light & wiper switch. We are operating the heated front & rear screen along with the hazzards from 3 x single pole pull type period switches using some relays.

Drop me a pm if nedded and I'll try to assist if I can.

Regards

Steve

that switch with the fuel logo above it, is that for the fuel pump or the fuel filler cap ?

i seen this thread a few times now and it just dawned on me that there was a fuel 'something' switch :P

he said on the previous page the sport button changes the ignition map to a more sporty one.
