Thanks, I am not too worried, if it gets too bad I will just go home (to Colorado)

I would use the same amperage as what the fuse box uses. (probably 15 amps)

Life is crazy. I don't have time right now to look at the schematic. I am working 15 hour shifts right now trying to fight North Dakota flood

I GOT IT FIXED! There is 2 hot wires going into the switch. as soon as I added a second hot wire everything went back to working fine, So now I got 2 fused hot wires running all the way to the switch...Kinda have a bad feeling I will be running alot of my own wires on this Heep
