FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this switch panel?
The Grayston Starter Switch Panel is designed to consolidate the control of essential vehicle functions like ignition, starting, and auxiliary accessories into a single, compact unit, ideal for motorsport and custom builds.
What is the maximum current rating for each switch?
Each switch (ignition, starter, and the two accessory switches) is rated for a heavy-duty 30 amps.
Does this panel include fuses or circuit breakers?
No, this panel does not include integrated fuses or circuit breakers. Users must implement external circuit protection suitable for their connected devices.
What type of vehicles is this panel best suited for?
It is ideal for motorsport vehicles, kit cars, hot rods, classic cars, or any custom build where a compact, reliable, and robust electrical control solution is needed.
What are the dimensions of the switch panel?
The dimensions of the panel are 110mm in length and 60mm in width.
Is the wiring harness specific to a particular car model?
No, the wiring harness is designed to be universal for easy installation into various 12-volt systems, providing connections for ignition, starter, and accessory switches.
How do I protect the ignition switch from accidental activation?
The ignition switch features an aircraft-style toggle with a flip-up cover, which must be lifted before the switch can be toggled, preventing accidental engagement.
Troubleshooting
Starter button does not engage the starter motor.
Verify that the ignition switch is in the 'on' position. Check the wiring connections to the starter button and the starter solenoid for continuity and secure attachment. Ensure the 30-amp rating of the switch is not exceeded by the starter motor's draw.
Accessory switches are not powering connected devices.
Confirm the ignition is switched on, as accessory circuits may be dependent on ignition power. Inspect the wiring for the accessory switches and the connected devices. Ensure the device's power draw does not exceed the 30-amp capacity of the switch.
Ignition switch does not power up vehicle electronics.
Check the wiring to the ignition switch and the main power feed. Ensure the aircraft-style toggle is fully engaged. Verify that the vehicle's battery is charged and the electrical system is functional.
Panel feels loose or vibrates.
Re-secure the mounting hardware. If custom mounting was used, ensure brackets are sturdy and properly fastened to the panel and the vehicle structure. Check for any loose internal components, although this is rare with heavy-duty panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The panel is designed for 12-volt vehicle electrical systems. The included wiring harness provides connections for the main power, ignition, starter, and accessory switches. It is crucial to follow the wiring diagram provided with the product for correct installation. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated. Mounting will likely require custom brackets or drilling into a suitable dashboard or panel location, considering its 110 x 60mm dimensions.
Compatibility: This panel is universally fitted for motorsport and custom applications. It is compatible with any 12-volt electrical system requiring the control of ignition, starting, and up to two auxiliary circuits rated at 30 amps each. Ensure your vehicle's electrical system can support the load of the connected accessories.
Care: To maintain the panel's appearance and function, clean it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the brushed alloy and carbon effect finishes. Periodically check all electrical connections for signs of corrosion or looseness.
