I know this topic has been covered in other threads, however...has anyone ever had a toggle that won't go off? I bought a "waterproof" toggle from Academy sports and have used it maybe 1.5 months and it crapped on me. I found out because my batt was dead after one ride this past weekend. I went back the next day and the batt was dead. Charged it up that night. Rode the following day and all was cool till I went to shut it down after riding and the brain wouldn't turn off. Never had a toggle stay on continuous.

Here on the 'X' mostly
Most of the toggle switches found at Academy, Wally World, Kmart, etc are garbage. They depend on the rubber toggle boot for all the protection. You need one that is fully sealed with an internal elastomer. You can run them without the boot and you'll still be fine.

I found the ones that I sell, because I had exactly the problem you are having.

If you want a decent one, hit me up. A bunch of guys on here have bought these from me, and I haven't heard of even one crapping out. :bananapowerslide:

8002k71 is about $18 and rated as water tight, oil washdown too.

with shipping though, SXis switch is a better deal.

Unless like me, yuou have a mcmaster carr order about once per week for SOMETHING...

Jet ski's are made for the saltwater and no harm whatsoever comes from riding in it .
Might as well quit now grif .



The rotary switches are the only switches to have IMO .Toggles suck ,even marine grade ones .

Switches are stupid...get a Rulemate 750 bilge with a built in floating pingpong ball switch.
Best pump ever and no need for stupid switches.

Been using the JSS switch for three years now, fresh and salt.
No problems.

As for McMaster....I'd rather send my money to a Jetski business. But then again, I don't have an axe to grind. :biggrin:

The pump is great but it won't fit in the bottom of the superjet hull because it is too big. I had to mount mine on the rounded part that is a couple of inches above the lowest part of the hull. It took a lot of water before it turned on, so it has a rule 360 that runs continuously as a friend now.
