SBP kill switch rocker doesnt work

Disconnect it and run a continuity test between the kill switch wires, then push the button and check the continuity. The tester should show continuity when the button is pressed.

If it doesn't work, contact SBP.
 
Most digital multi-meters have a continuity setting. Many of them beep when there is continuity.

If you don't already have one, they are really pretty cheap and can be found at Radio Shack, Harbor Freight, Northern Tools, or most auto parts shops.
 
Use an ohm meter. Typically the small cheap analog ones have three scales, volts, ohms and amps. Set the meter to ohms and connect the two leads to the two wires from the kill switch. Press the switch, or whatever you're supposed to do to kill the engine. The needle should go full scale. If the meter is digital then it should read '0' ohms or no resistance with the button depressed.

I'm guesssing the switch is defective if you had it wired correctly and it didn't work.
