    Hello everyone,
    The power On/Off switch inside my APU broke. I'm home on two weeks time off and there's no thermo King dealer near me to go and buy one. I have search EBay and Amazon with no luck. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, I'm thinking I can use any similar heavy duty two terminal On/Off switch that will fit on that bracket. Is that doable or do I need to get the specific thermo King switch.

    Solution --- I picked up a two terminal toggle switch SW47 from Napa, similar to the thermo king switch on the APU and it worked. Thanks for all the help!

    How many wires go into that switch. Was it 3?
