    When starting up this morning , noticed I could not switch on to Hi Idle..No light was on in the switch, also noted that the switch would not rocker down. Is the switch a rocker switch in both directions UP and Down? Is this ckt fused, if so where is the fuse located?

    Sounds like your switch is toast. It has prolly had quite a few "toggles"!!!

    If it is OK, check the clutch switch too.
