Title: Shurflo pressure switch
Post by: Dave Willis on March 15, 2019, 12:37:00 pm
Anyone got a link to Maplins for these? Are they still trading?

Maplins finished now. What you are looking for is a "standard micro switch" , get them off Ebay etc.  but make sure you get something like a 16 amp one as there are 1 amp ones etc that will just blow.

If you can wire in a 40amp automotive relay to your kit you'll likely will never have to change a microswitch again. This has certainly proved helpful for me. I was burning through them every few months till I did this. I haven't had to replace one now for about two years.

Glad I bought a few of these the other day.
My PS burnt out today, so I fitted one of the wintecs switches.
Saves you u about £20  on the price of a full PS.
A bit fiddly to fit as you have to disassemble the whole switch but with the help of YouTube you can sort it.
I must admit I don't use a controller at all so this is probable why I burn out a switch every 6 months or so.

You're so right, but I'm a DIY fool, so I think I excelled myself today 😁
