Sometimes it just can't handle the high ignition load, and this can be overcome by installing a relay, operated by the ignition switch - this reduces the load on the switch substantially, and can avoid the contacts breaking down under high load. It is unlikely that anything other than a Saab part will fit, -- Regards, Danny http://www.gaggia-espresso.com (a purely hobby site) http://www.dannyscoffee.com (UK advert for my mobile espresso service) swap Z for above characters in email address to reply
