Ignition Safety switch???
« on: July 02, 2009, 11:45:06 AM »
I was cleaning out my engine bay last night and noticed what i thought to be an extra bilge pump next to my jet that said "ignition safety".  Looks just like a bilge with 2 wires coming out of it but no place to put a hose to pump out the water.  Any idea what it is or am i just a dumba$$?

Good call GT!! Bilge pump float switch.  Turns the pump on automatically if too much H20 gets back there...good feature, but make sure it works.  You should also have a manual switch on the dash...also make sure it works.

I figured that GT had hit the nail on the head with his comment.   It is a great feature i just figured that it was built into the pump itself.  On dash also works.


thanks for all of your help!
