Dimmer switch for PacBrake?

(1/1)

Brian Fahlgren:
I've searched the forum and didn't find anything. I want to mount an old-style foot dimmer switch on the floor so I can activate the PacBrake with either the factory rocker on the side console and/or a floor-mounted dimmer switch. Can I add a floor on/off dimmer switch by wiring it in parallel to the factory rocker switch?
I know PacBrake makes a floor-mounted switch, but it's a momentary switch. I don't want to keep my foot on the switch.

I think it would be easier to press the foot switch instead of hunting for the console-mounted rocker switch. My coach is old enough that it doesn't have the switches in the center of the steering wheel.  Thanks!

Brian

I put a little runner bumper on my jake brake switch so i can easily find it without looking too hard.

Brian Fahlgren:
That's a pretty good idea too. Thanks!
