alright so it was the BD switch that went bad. The metal connection for the slide switch fell off. I went and ordered a Tusk enduro swtich (a little different but a hell of alot cheaper) and i plan to splice it into the plug from the baja desings switch. I just cant get anything to work and atfirst i figured the switch should hav ea ground but its just an inline switch on the hot. So im gonna chase and find some grounds. I just dont feel like doing it while its snowing so ill bring it in the shop on friday and hopfully have my lights back
