Hi,
I have a 1983 suzi DT60 2cylinder. A previous owner had removed the kill switch. I have fitted a brand new one, which if you turn on the ignition with the switch made I.E shorting to earth to stop the engine it blows one of the 20amp engine fuses.I assume this is why the switch was removed. I have checked grounds & done a quick visual of the wiring to see, but nothing is jumping out at me. The engine runs fine with the switch unmade i.e lanyard in.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Steve

Re: kill switch keeps blowing fuse

really don't know that engine but i think a kill switch don't wire into a hot wire it's a ground circuit. circuit is open when key is in switch and closed when out
