Yes you can not start it with out the key. But you can short the switch out and get it started.
But that would take a little time and you would have to know about it.
I would think it maybe a line that is leaking. I would turn the truck off and push on the brakes and see if you can hear a leak, also get a soldier B to help out.
FYI, if your truck has a ball valve on the front service glad hand, Do not close it, it will cause brake problems. I know first hand.
When I tested my winch on the truck I had my wife run the winch and I tried to pull the cable out,
did not get much out before I did not want to do it any more.aua
You are right it is a 3 or 4 man job!!
Kurt, The Colehersee switches are what I am using in my trucks, I have been using them now for a year or so with out any problems.
they are rated at "Electrical Ratings 1000A,175A continuous".
The switch just looks little in the battery box.
Flaming river also has some good...
