    Default Where to find switches locally? Power button for Malibu Boat

    Looking for the power switch for a Malibu Wakesetter, or more probably a suitable generic replacement option.
    Looks like this:Name:  malibu-wakesetter-247-lsv-power-button-500x334.jpg

    I assume nothing that looks the same would be in stock locally, but any old circular push-switch would be fine.

    Imma reply to my own thread with possible options. I don't have the dimensions for this switch, but these seem close. It's not my boat, and it's not in town, so I need to do what I can with guesses.

    Really you need to know the voltage/current on that circuit...

    I'm not sure, but I'd guess that this switch has very low current and is just tripping a relay elsewhere in the boat. From my digging looks like it's a 22mm switch.

    Most switches I have seen like that are usually 5A.

    You also need to figure out what kind of resistor you have to put inline with that LED(unless you buy the exact same switch) otherwise you'll likely blow the LED.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Should update, apparently once he looked at the back of the switch one of the wires was loose. He's pushed that back on and it sounds like it is working fine. Nice?
    SWS sells the malibu OEM part of around $110 bucks if you were wondering . . . .
